Suggest Remedy For Eye Floaters
Hi, about 10 minutes ago, I started to have wavy, flashing vision in the left corner of my eye. I am starting to get a headache in the right side of my head and am finding it difficult to focus on one thing with my eyes or read. Do you have an immediate diagnosis or idea?
