Am I going to be ok or go blind?

Yes I’ve been seeing increased afterimages, floaters, flashing lights, bad visual snow. And I went to eye doctor and they saw nothing. Can you see this stuff from a bad traumatic experience? I’ve been seeing visual snow and after images my whole life but not this bad. Is there anything I can do to get these symptoms down? When I look at something and look away I can see anything really and it blends in with the visual snow. I don’t do any drugs just what’s prescribed to me. Also when I look up I can see a black colored triangle thing is that my eyelid? please help

You need to see a specific kind of eye doctor for your problem.  That is called a ‘Neuro-ophthalmologist” Eye MD.  They have them on staff of academic ophthalmology departments and in private practices in larger cities. Start tracking one down. If you have seen an Eye MD you can ask that MD to help refer you.
