Hello
Welcome to health care magic.
I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you had a injury following which you are having viteous hemorrhage and traumatic iritis.
The floaters and flashes of light are because of vitreous hemorrhage. They are because of blood particles moving in the vitreous.
No need to worry as you have undergone indirect ophthalmoscopy examination by scleral depression ( the test you have undergone by eye pressing) and since it is not showing any retinal problems like retinal tear or retinal detachment.
These floaters and flashes will resolve once the vitreous hemorrhage resolves. Vitreous hemorrhage usually resolves by 6-12 weeks.
Do continue the treatment as advised by your eye doctor you will be fine.
Hope the information is helpful to you.
Thank you
With regards
