I had flashes of light that would come and go. I went to an eye doctor and discovered that the liquid inside my eyeball was shrinking and pulling the retina away from the inside of my eyeball. The doctor said that it would probably go away with time, and it did go away in about a week. I must say, however, that I had been using an over-the-counter medication to dry up my sinuses because I had an allergy and had a hard time breathing. The doctor said he didn't think the allergy medicine had anything to do with the eyeball, but I think it did.
