I am in limbo land. I have always had lots of flashes and floaters throughout my life. I had some new ones in my right eye and went to the opthamologist who was looking for retinal issues (tears, etc.) I told him that I was being evaluated for MS and asked if he saw any indication of ON. He said that my optic nerve looked great.
The one thing that I have for months is sound-induced phosphenes. It happens when I am falling asleep and my kids cough or make noise, and I am startled. I see bright phosphenes in both eyes with my eyes shut in the dark
Otherwise, my vision is perfect. Just these flashes when I blink and the phosphenes. No eye pain that I can recal other than an occasional headache?
So, can you have ON and not know it?
