peripheral flashing is sometimes caused by the retinal tissue detaching from the base membrane in the back of your eye, although if that were the case she would have definitely seen it in a routine eye exam.
That was my thought as well. My eye doctor spotted hints that I could have minor retinal tearing a while back and told me that if I EVER had any sort of flashing round the periphery of my vision to RUN to his office immediately, as it was a sign of a detached retina.

If it proves not to be a detached retina, it could be migraines. Not everyone has pain with migraines, occasionally someone will just have vision problems.

detatched retina.. do you have history of diabeties in yoru family or you got diabeties??
You need to go get a deep exam of the retina.. and an ultra sound of your eyes.. that will confirm if the retina has been detached..
I had flashes at one time but thankfully no detatched retina's. So be careful though.. it took about 3 visits by 3 different doctors to confirm it.. but i am still careful.
Blurry vision can be due to several things.. and by the way i had child cataracts so i know a bit about these things.

Maybe it's brain cancer. We may get rid of goku yet.
(I'm going to feel extremely guilty if he comes back and says he has brain cancer)
