Why do u see dots when u look into light?


Question:
can it damage ur eyes?

Answers:
You have photoreceptors (rods and cones) that pick up wavelengths of light. When a bright light is directed at these photoreceptors they become "bleached" and it takes some time for them to full recover. This is why it appears there is a shadow -or spots - these photoreceptors are not functioning properly and therefore not picking up the light they normally would.

Other Answers:
Its because your cones and rods get overstimulated, like a bleaching affect. Once they can replenish you can see again
cause your eyes have to come back into focus and you blind out for a sec ithink
I use to see dots like that, I always thought it was due to blood pressure, or if you get hit in the head really hard you do see stars....
They are floating bodies.

Not kidding - look it up on the internet.
