Please have your retina checked at the earliest. Floaters and flashes may indicate a retinal problem which may need early treatment.

Get the retina checked. Usually these symptoms are inconsequential but may be because of some retinal weakness which needs to be checked

Do get your retina checked at your nearest retina clinic . It's not an emergency if the floaters & flashes are not recent but a dilated retinal evaluation is needed . You can get it done once the lockdown is over .
