Symptom narrative

On April 9, 2021, the vitreous in my left eye detached at approximately 9:30 PM CST. This event was very obvious to me as I was sitting in a dark room at the time it happened. I saw a series of bright, white flashes in the corner of my eye, which subsided within a couple of minutes.

None at that particular time. However, I am submitting another incident report dated 5/8/21, which is when the retina in my left eye detached. This was 22 days after my COVID-19 Moderna vaccine #2. My vitreous detached (this incident report) happened 23 days after my first Covid-19 vaccination.
