Flashes during rubbing my closed right eye and flickering on left eye corner in dark.reviewed by retina sp - no change.how long until they subside?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flickering: Fortunately a retina specialist showed no detachments or other retinal pathology in your case. Could the flickering be due to simple floaters which can take different shapes and last indefinitely?
