This phenomenon often occurs due to changes in the vitreous gel inside your eye or irritation of the retina. While it is good that there is no pain, it's important to monitor your symptoms. I recommend scheduling an appointment with an eye specialist who can conduct a thorough examination. Early detection is crucial for addressing any potential issues. In the meantime, try to avoid straining your eyes and ensure proper lighting when reading or working. Your health is a priority, so don’t hesitate to seek professional guidance.
