any eye doctor is better than none. but you might be better off seeing a retinal specialist 1st. problem with that is many insurance companies/hmo's wont let you see the "specialist" w/o a referral from your primary provider 1st...
Thank You for your advise... may I ask what kind of eye doctor do I need to see and do I just explain it like I did in my ealier statement?
thank you again... could this be part of another problem I'm having with getting very dissy that I will be walking and just start to fall over to the side?...I don't have eye insurance... all I have is medical... so I guess I'll just go to my eye doctor and start there... thanks again....
you need an eye exam quickly. this sounds like recent onset of floaters (the spider web) and recent onset of FLASHES (the strobelight). it is possible that you could have:
1) retinal detachment
2) retinal hole
3) retinal tear
among other possibilities. if you are having a retinal detachment, time is of the essence. do not wait. go to the eye doctor today, seriously.
i am not trying to panic you, but some of the things that cause those symptoms are serious sight-threatining conditions.
