Question Does anyone get bad afterimages ? And how do you cope up with it

I get afterimages when I read texts on books , screens sometimes when I stare at things , or bright objects Did all the scans came back normal Did a erg it said I had a very mild macular dysfunction but not concerning I am going blind because of this And does afterimages mean your eyes a&e getting damaged overtime ( every single time you get an afterimage ) It all started when I was exposed to very bright led lights but there were no damage in the scans Now I have static and bad afterimages

I do, I just get over it, every test came back normal for me as well. If you hyper focus on it your symptoms will be worse.

For around 6-7 years, eating clean and exercising has helped tremendously.
