Not asking for any medical advice on these just wondering if anyone else here experiences these. For those that don't know, they are basically little hair like squiggles which appear in your line of vision. I first noticed one in my right eye back in May, now I have one in my left eye too. Very annoying.
 
Got them in both eyes, normally don't even notice them anymore as I've had them for 20 years. Opticians explained it to me as being little bits of the liquid in your eyeball solidifying, totally harmless though.
 
I have had them now and then when i was younger where they have disappeared after a few blinks, however, this current one has been in my right eye since May.....it is getting to me.

This.

Can you actually see them when you're looking around normally? I mean I can see them if I look at the sky or something else bright like a monitor, but don't notice them unless I specifically try to...
 
Sometimes I get one floating in my right eye and I move my head trying to fololow it then STOP and wonder wtf and I doing :p
 
The reason mine annoy me is because I have quite a few in each eye and they never go away. Luckily, the only time they can really be seen is looking into the sky, or looking at white screens on monitors.
 
I have one more or less constantly but can only see it in bright light. Sort of like a chain of amoeba that move as you try to focus on them.

Had mine since very young. Doesn't bother me but glad its not just me.

Anyone know what they are?
