This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You didn't. If you get a retinal tear and then don't get treatment you'll end up with permanent vision loss. It's a major medical emergency. If all you had was a flash and nothing else, it wasn't a retinal tear.
Your doctors might be concerned about retinal detachment which can be just as serious though. If they think you're a high risk for it it's worth getting anything abnormal checked out.
