blue field entoptic phenomenon with retinal flashes

hi im a 15 year old healthy girl.I have a few floaters which dont bother me much but this blue entoptic phenomenon and very dim white circular spots when i close my eyes in the dark are really bothering me. I see these spots even on the walls of a dark room. I visited my pediatric opthamologist who had my eyes dilated and said that there was nothing wrong with it. My vision was perfect,never had to wear any glasses, no history of eye diseases,injuries or surgeries. Any help would be very appreciated.

I can't examine your eyes and as the disclaimer for MedHelp.org says we can't make exact diagnoses, however many people have descried exactly the same thing and for 99% that is another entopic phenomena.

There are many posts like yours at this Eye Forum,  probably over a hundred. In most cases after a normal eye exam the problem is hyperawareness of normal entoptic phenomena.  Read the entire section in Wikipediat on entoptic phenomena  it should make you feel better the more you think about it the more aware you will be.
