This happens in certain lighting conditions (bright light, when looking at a white wall or curtain, when in the shade on a bright day). This never happens in the dark or pitch black.
When I look to the left and blink I see a sort of line in my peripheral vision. It's only visible for about half a second and then disappears. I'm not sure when it started and may have been here for a while but only started noticing it a few months ago.
The second thing is a similar looking bright or dark horizontal line in the bottom of my vision which occurs when I look up sharply. I'm pretty sure this has only been in the last 3 weeks.~
Both things only happen when I make an eye moment.
I went to an ophthalmologist clinic 2 weeks ago to get it checked out and they looked extensively for any retinal problems. I then was asked to come back 2 weeks later for a check up and they compared the two pictures of my retina they took (with dilated pupils). There was a sort of small line that the doctor pointed at and said 'that's just your eye', but nothing has changed so there's no problem, you're completely fine, relax.
Well it's been a week later and I'm still seeing the same flash line when I look up in my right eye... I'm just pretty worried about it and I don't speak the language here very well, so couldn't communicate that well with the doctor.
My eyes are also extremely dry for the past 3 months when I go to sleep. My right eye does feel a little tired and strained.
If anyone could shed some light that would be amazing.
