Brief Answer:
Indirect ophthalmoscopy required

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

This history description indicates floaters which are due to vitreal opacities and are normal in most cases. However if this associated with light flashes then it could indicate retinal pathology. Indirect ophthalmoscopy would be required to rule out any serious cause and have peace of mind. Please , have an ophthalmologist examine her for that purpose.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
