Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having macular dystrophy and you are having symptoms of flickering of vision.
This is related to your macular dystrophy.
You need to consult your ophthalmologist for examination to look for posterior segment problems like vitreous degenerations, retinal thinning, progression of your macular dystrophy.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment accordingly.

Hope the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
With regards
I find this answer helpful
