Brief Answer:
Clinical examination required
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for clarifying.
You need to visit an ophthalmologist and get your eyes examined. You probably have floaters in your eye. The eyeball is filled with a jelly like substance called vitreous humor. It has thin attachments to the retina, the photosensitive layer of the eye. Sometime, slight pull on these connections may lead to shapes seen out of nowhere. The eye pressure also needs to be measured. The condition of the retina also needs to be assessed.
I would insist you not to ignore it.
