After images: After images after looking at a bright or colored object for an extended period of time can be normal. It can also be a sign of neurological disease in rare cases. If you have been evaluated and neurological disease has been ruled out, i would just monitor it for worsening and if it changes i would recommend seeing a neurologist.
