Flash light in eye
Hi,
I get suddenly flash like circle light around my corner of the right eye and disappear in fraction of second. I am experiencing this thrice in a day for past two days. I don't know whether it's serious issue to consult a doctor or it will go away.
NB: I have migraine issue.
Thanks.

You can get dilated eye examination done by local ophthalmologist to rule out any retinal issue.
