Eye Sparkles..Anyone?

[onebreathatatime]

I have eye floaters, and dark spots... been checked at the eye dr last year and was told I have perfect vision and nothing is wrong with my eyes at all. Now as of lately I have been seeing quick flashes that look like sparkles or as a diamond. I find mainly when I am at work in my office with the bright lights/computers it happens more frequently, just wondering if anyone else experiences this type of eye disturbance? I have another appointment at the end of this month, to have my eyes rechecked and make sure everything is good.. but it's freaking me out...

Yes I get them. Mine started out as just that but now I get occasional blurry vision too. I've made myself think I have a brain tumor. I tense my face and clench my jaw a lot so that doesn't help either.
