moving lights - what is this?!


Question: Moving lights - what is this?
I am not too scared as it only happened once, if it happens again I might tell my parents.

I was playing squash and I saw all these little moving lights going in random directions for a couple of seconds. I laughed, must have just been the weirdness of seeing it. My game was really bad after that, and it was pretty decent before that.

I was doing a bit of running but we weren't playing a game yet so it was just a tiny bit, but I had been doing rock climbing as my school sport so I had been doing physical activity for a while. I wasn't dehydrated and none of the exercise had been too strenuous (and I am pretty fit) so I have no clue why I saw them. It could have just been a coincidence with my game being bad but it was really appalling and I think I may have seen little flashes or tiny little moving lights for a while afterwards but they where on there own.

Does everyone just see little moving lights every now and then? If so why, I am interested now.

Answers:

Were they bright colours such as, green pink and yellow and 'dancing' in front of your eyes?

The most common cause for this is a migraine, but without the annoying headache.

Another more serious reason may be retinal detachment. This was an underlying symptom when I myself had retinal detachments back in 2005.

Either way, I recommend you book an appointment with an optician, just to be on the safe side.



if it effected your game, tell your parents and a doctor. sometimes i see dots of color but it doesn't effect my behavior or strength
