Hi everyone,
The feeling of being flashed by the light of a camera and it's after effects, do people remember what it feels like?
I was working today in front of my computer like I usually do, and all of a sudden my vision goes into that "camera flash" state. It felt as if I was flashed by the camera (even though I wasn't). I thought to myself that it was odd but I brushed it off as if it was nothing. However the "flash effect" stayed on my eyes for a good 10-20 mins (I wasn't really keeping track >_<) and after noticing how long it lasted I started to get worried, several minutes after that I felt nauseous and had a slit fever but quickly recovered from it within 2 hours.
Anyone had this feeling before? I did some research and some people said its an early warning sign of a migraine (Migraines do run in my family, however I have no gotten a migraine since that camera flash effect, which was roughly 7 hours ago now) Another possibility is retinal detachment, however I tend to always exaggerate my self-diagnosis.
Any help would be great and much appreciated, thanks!
