What exactly happens when you get a bright light in your eye and you start seeing spots in your vision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See an eye doc: You may have a vitreous detachment or a retinal problem. Please see an eye doc asap. If you have any vision change or developing a blind spot then you need to see an eye doc immediately or go to er.
