Yes, I have had flashing in one eye. Twice in the last two years. It's been diagnosed by the opthalmologist as an ocular migraine. The retina gets irritated. (Nothing to do with the metoprolol which I take to control a ventricular arrythmia). Important to have it checked to ensure it's nothing serious (e.g. detached retina).

hello sue 225, this is called "scintillating scotoma". you will find the description , wenn you google it, it can happen in one or two eyes. it belongs to the migraine auras. , not necessarly followed by headache.
