What Causes Floaters And Flashing In Vision When Bending?
Hi, after bending down to wash the floor I noticed that my vision was like looking through a prism and flashing. This lasted about 5 minutes. I have lain on the bed and it seems fine now. It hasn t happened before. I am 60, female and taking Levothyroxin 50mcgs daily.
As you explain the situation regarding your concern first you should be seen by a cardiologist specialist to exclude heart problems and after if negative than an ophthalmologist is needed.
