Yes...I have seen an eye doctor and he examined my retinas and I don't have any tears in the retina.
So what I see is not "bad"...he said if it changes markedly or vision gets reduced...beat feet back to him.
Mine are a little less frequent now and weren't horribly frequent at the onset.

So until when and if someone sees a doctor and gets evaluated...don't assume what I see is what you see.
With the eyes...see a doctor and discuss with him about any concerns someone might have and that includes whether cpap therapy is possibly a factor.
