Hello, I am 58 years old, yesterday (April 1st) while on a trip to the grocery store driving down the freeway i noticed a black line running up and down the left side of my left eye, I thought it was possibly a dog hair but without irritation. I rubbed my eye once or twice once I arrived at the store, It was driving me nuts so I went into the bathroom and looked closely in the mirror and saw nothing upon leaving the restroom everything went nuts, my whole left eye-vision was covered with these large distracting sooty type of floaters, by the time i left the store and got outside my left eye vision had become slightly foggy with hundreds of tiny little dots, after about an hour I laid down to rest for a bit then things settled down. At around 7:00 pm we went out and after dark i noticed a small flash of light again on the left side of the left eye, by this time i was getting a little freaked out by all of this. Today Monday the next day everything was going okay with an occasional dark floater going by, now at 9:pm today I went outside in the dark and looked to the left and to my surprise-no more flash of light on the left side just i slight small flash not happening all the time just a little farther up between top and side but in doing this all of the sudden the large trails of the sooty floaters came back, this was about 30 min ago and even as I sit here and type it seems to be getting better. Your thoughts will be VERY much appreciated. Thank You Travis
