Eye flashes?

hello, I'm a 15 year old boy . So I noticed when my eyes are in darkness and I move them quickly (like left to right, up to down etc) for a while after a while a very faint trembling light will appear for an instant every time I move my eye. It's like a short flash and I won't notice it while in the light. Should I be worried?
