Blue spot in vision - any ideas?!

I have been experiencing a blue spot in my vision that comes and goes - it usually appears in dimly lit places and sometimes develops into a flash of light. I can usually see this blue spot on red colours quite clearly too.

My optician says my eyes are healthy, but I do have floaters, flashes and white without pressure.

I am beginning to wonder if this could be a sign of diabetes or hypoglycemia?

Anyone who has experienced similar please let me know as I can find no information and would love some answers!

    Yes,I have gotten it off and on for a couple of years,I have Googled it and others have had it also,usually it seems quite benign. I mentioned it to my eye doctor a few times and he did not seemed concerned with it. I pretty much now just don't let it bother me.

      Interesting, thanks for sharing. I've been trying to ignore it but is difficult when some weeks i'm getting it several times a day for no apparent reason!
