Ooh, that's good. 
Also, there's the option of using magitek, as Garleans exhibit effects that are extremely similar in appearance and effect to Eorzean magic. Magitek Flash might be a flashbang grenade, a rapidly rotating mirror, a blinding strobelight, etc.
A particularly cheeky friend of mine has suggested that Flash could also performed in the manner of the Flash Mobs in Erfworld, but... I doubt most will want to go that route.
IMO, what you don't want to do is go too far afield from the extant effect. Flash generates enmity and applies Blind, so whatever the source is, it should plausibly have those effects -- but that's part of the plausible narrative.
