Causes of flashes in your vision. As the vitreous âgelâ within your eye shrinks, it may pull on the retina (the focusing surface at the back of your eye). If the retina is peeled away from the back of the eye, it can cause flashes of light in your vision to occur. A retinal tear or detached retina is a serious and potentially sight-threatening condition.
When the vitreous separates from the retina, you may see flashing lights once in a while, for a few weeks. If you see jagged lines of light that last 10 to 20 minutes and happen in one or both eyes, this is probably a migraine caused by the spasm of blood vessels in the brain. If you don't develop a headache after, the light flashes are called ophthalmic migraine, or migraine without headache.
