Eventually went to the Ophthalmologist, like 2 weeks later. I had holes in my retina! (NO PAIN!) He did laster surgery that day, says he "saved my vision." Man, the "other" population would have gone to a Doc immediately. We gotta learn to trust our instincts.

Follow up...Aylse...
The Doc asked if I had suffered any "trauma" to my head. Had not. No explanation for the retinal holes.
