My first guess would be the sun or a light reflecting off of something. Be more specific your kind vague.

Yes we have this happen once or twice a year at my mothers house and many people will see it all at the same time. we would all be at dinner and we will hear a buzzing sound then a flash of light will go off in the middle of the room.

Kind of crazy

I had it happen to me today at around 12.30 gmt, i walked into a room where my daughter and son were, there was a flash, kind of like lightening, but not the same, and no thuder before or after, i just put it down to lightening, which is probably what it was, weird thing was that when i asked the other people present, no one noticed it at all.

I still go with lightening though lol, i dont think it is anything sinister.

I guess I am going to have to jump on the "need more information" band wagon on this one...

A random flash of light...well what makes it so random and why do you think it is so unusual?

Maybe a few more specifics would help us all to understand what your talking about...maybe some thoughts and a little better description...just a thought

Ok try to give more info. It's like small round light and as soon as you see it. It's gone.

Check this page out...you could be ill

www.rightdiagnosis.com...

Flashes need immediate medical diagnosis by an eye specialist because of the risk of the severe retinal detachment, which can cause vision loss. However, other causes of flashes (and floaters) are more common than retinal detachment, such as vitreous detachment due to aging. Flashes are caused by improper stimulation of the eye's retina, or the optic nerve, which the brain interprets as light. Flashes may occur on movement of the eye, such as in vitreous detachment where the vitreous is pulling on the retina and eye movement exacerbates the effect.

Not everything that you cannot explain is paranormal For the most part its to do with health...go see a doctor or optician.

How big is the flash of light? Because I see a small, bright pinprick of light (usually blue or a different color) flash in the corner of my vision, at least a few times per week. I don't know what this is but I've read that some people experience it due to stress....?

You will be all right Donnie! dimensional thinning of the veil!

But when do you see it? Where? Give us the circumstances?How many times have you seen it? Has anyone you known witnessed this light?

We need more than " I saw a flash of light and then it was gone"

I just put this in the Guardian Angels thread, but yes I have been seeing flashes for the past 3 months now.

It is like someone has taken a pic with a flash but no-one is around taking pictures when it's happened.

It's just a white flash, it has been happenening every few days, I don't know what to think of it.


It has happened indoors, outdoors, in my car (no is wasn't a speed camera).
Just anywere and anytime, and no no-one around me at the time of it happening has noticed it.

a lightbulb blew somewhere??? you had your picture taken??/ culd be alot of things maybe a UFO youll never kno

I think you should get a medical diagnosis from an eye doctor first to make sure there is nothing wrong. If you are cleared there then you can search for other causes.

@replikank you just explain it better than i could. It's like a small pinprick of the light. Then as soon as you see it. It's gone.

So none of you think it could be something to do with your health??

It must be paranormal.......WHY????

I was thinking you might be witnessing a light orb, but when the description went to "pinprick" I thought more likely it was stress related Photopsia.

Ordinarily, light entering your eye stimulates the retina. This produces an electrical impulse, which the optic nerve transmits to the brain. The brain then interprets this impulse as light or some type of image.

If the retina is mechanically stimulated (physically touched), a similar electrical impulse is sent to the brain. This impulse is then interpreted as a "flicker" of light.

When the retina is tugged, torn or detached from the back of the eye, a flash or flicker of light commonly is noticed. Depending on the extent of the tear or detachment, these flashes of light might be short-lived or continue indefinitely until the retina is repaired.

Flashes (photopsia) also may occur after a blow to the head, often called "seeing stars."

Some people experience flashes of light that appear as jagged lines or "heat waves" in both eyes, often lasting 10-20 minutes. These types of flashes are usually caused by a spasm of blood vessels in the brain, which is called a migraine.

I've had that too. It's happened to me a few times...it looks like very thin mm long strings of light that seem to move quickly away from the center of your field of vision. At first I thought I had parasites in my eye or something. But then I found a link similar to the one previously posted.

As said earlier, if it's a concern, no reason to not see an optometrist or ophthalmologist. But I doubt it's paranormal.

I can come at you from two perspectives on this because i'v seen light from a eye problem and strange light from a external source and usually you can tell the difference, the light from a eye problem wont hit you like a flash from a camera or a light bulb that just burnt out once you turned it on, how can i put this.... it wont seem that real but more of white dots or maybe flashs of white types of silhouettes or i should say white garble, but i walk at night for exercise and i have seen four examples of what i would call giant flashs of light that i knew were real, it came from three separate directions only twice from the same direction and from a distance and all four times there wasen't a cloud in the sky, it looked like giant flashs from what i would call a hybird between a camera and a explosion but there was no noise, i have no idea what they were who knows....

Where do you live? I seen this tonight around 9:00 in vancouver, wa
