Author bleeding in retina --> light spot

Hi,

Perhaps you could help me out / someone with same experience..

Since a couple of months i have a little 'light spot' in my left eye..
When I cover my right eye, and read with my left eye only, there's a little
'sun / star / spot' blocking some letters on the next line..

(So when I focus at 'light spot' , i can't see the word 'read'..
Very irritating..

I am seeing a doctor for this, but are ther more cases like this?

Kind regards,
M. Snoek

I had a small point of flashing light in my left eye for a couple of
months - didn't think too much about it because I have migraines.
Then I lost my vision in the complete left side of my eye - I have a
neovascularization under the retina that is bleeding. Don't waste
time - get to your doctor ASAP. I feel that if I had gone in sooner,
I could have saved my vision.
