Bad vision

Hi,

Right from childhood;  I see little dots (a lot of them) in dim light or in darkness.
I got myself checked multiple times and everytime eye check up was normal (retina was good).  What could be the reason of these dots ?
Does everyone sees it - I doubt. They are visible on plain surfaces a lot.

Is this night blindness ? :( or becuase of improper diet.  Please note I have no difficulty otherwise in seeing objects.

retina check up was fine.
Is it likely if we see somethin on white ; it will be visible in dark as well ?

You should see a retina specialist, and also have a visual field test.  Chances are these are normal vitreous floaters, but I am not sure why you see them in the dark.  A careful retina exam with a retina specialist is in order.
