What Causes Twitching Sensation And Floaters In Eye?
My eye has been twitching now for several years. Lately it s occurring more frequently. In the last 24 hours, I m seeing a kind of light flashing my peripheral vision in that same eye, when I move my head, even when my eyes are closed. It s kind of freaking me out. Nueorlogical? Brain tumor?
