A member asked:

Why do i see starbursts around lights? i was just at the eye doc a month ago and they found nothing wrong at all. i have good vision too.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be from...: Meant things but most common are : dry eyes - use lubricating drops as needed, Cataract- maybe early enough that the eye doctor thought the were insignificant.
