What Does Black Shadow Behind Eye In An Eye Test Indicate?

i went for an eye test yesterday and they found a black shadow behind the left eye. they said it might be nothing at all but are arranging an appointment at the hospital to check it out.



This is the first eye test i have had so it could have been there a long while. I am 52 and just needed reading glasses.

take your reading glass as advised. but black shadow can be a floater in vitreous or lenticular opacity. so you have to go for examination by eye doctor if required treatment is tobe given for opacity
