Red flags for visiting the physician:

• Eye pain, painful eye movements, discharge from eyes;
• Impairment of vision – difficulties to see far or close, clouded vision, complaints about deformed, convoluted lines, impaired night time vision.
• The so-called ''eye floaters'' with flashes or without them. If you observe flashing followed by sort-of rain of ashes or drop of a dark, non-transparent curtain that stays even after moving your eyes, you need to visit an ophthalmologist immediately.
• Doubling;
• High sensitivity to light (with and without pain) and blinding.
• Temporary loss of vision (less than half an hour) with flashing or without it.
• Eye itchiness.
