Seeing "floaters" and flashes in my vision?

Question

For a few hours, I've been seeing small black dots appear in my vision and immediately disappear when I move my eyes. I've also been seeing the same, but flashing dots, and sometimes flash patches. I'm 15, and also have very (extremely) horrible anxiety. At the moment, my heart is racing a bit. And, I've been experiencing what seems to be an Upper Respiratory Infection for a couple of days, and have been stressing about it.

A few months ago, in class, something similar happened where a halo grew in my vision. The next week, I would have a headache everyday, so I assumed the halo was a warning of a migraine. No problems since then.

Also, if this helps, I may be undergoing depression, and I stress a lot. Along with extreme anxiety.

I just want to know if this is something I should worry about (...kinda too late) or if this may be stress related and that I need to relax. (I have a very small headache, I think, but I cant really tell [not sure])

Answer 1

See an eye doctor. Floaters are fairly normal, lights not so much. Seek medical advice.
