What Causes Seeing Of Black Lines In The Line Of Vision?

I woke up yesterday morning to a series of black lines and dots in my vision of my right eye. Even when I don t move my eye these dots and black lines seem to be moving. My left I is fine, I am a diabetic and have had my eyes examined as recently as 3 months ago. Very concerned as this came on so suddenly. Can you tell me what this might be?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Black spots or line in front of your eyes are called as floaters. It can be due to vitreous cause or retinal cause. Vitreal cause are not much to concern about. The problem is about retinal cause. So go and meet ophthalmologist for ophthalmoscopic examination of your eye. Follow his advice and your problem will be solved.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
