Hello,
I have been experiencing quick flashes of colourful circles when I wake up around 05.30 hours after about 5-6 hours of sleep. This started about 4 weeks ago. Had thought it was normal, due to lack of sleep / and or stress. they don't seem to be disappearing now. occurs everyday in the morning.
sometimes, the flashes are less than a full circle, about 4-5 of them small to large. separate formation in front of each eye.
I am past 58, male, work is a stressful,.. had a Angioplast and stenting done about 12 years ago; otherwise healthy, weighs about 70+ Kg...mostly stays in indoor air-conditioned environment, though outside is pretty hot and dusty. Have been using eye plain eye drops for decades two to three times a day, couple of drops in each eye.
Is my problem serious or to be ignored ?
