No, it's not normal to have the symptoms you describe. Have your parents contact the emergency room and ask if they have an opthomologist on duty or can get one to come in. From the symptoms you describe, it may be something that needs immediate attention as it may threaten your eyesight. If you see flashes of light along with a lot of floaters, that could be a sign of a detached retina. Something that needs immediate attention.
