General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The symptoms can be related to a retinal detachment.
This is a condition in which the retina peels away from the back of the eye, and eye flashes are among its symptoms.
I suggest you to visit an ophthalmologist for a psychical examination and further treatment.

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