Possible problem: The two most common causes of new light flashes are migraines, and retinal disturbances. The former are short term, but if the flashes are persistent, especially if accompanied by many floaters or changes in the vision, then you need to see your ophthalmologist right away to rule out retinal detachment versus vitreous detachment.
