Eye Floaters

[ChrisJSY]

I sometimes get them when I'm shooting and concentrating on a target through an iron sight. Very anoying

 

[Kyo Daikun]

Do they pool together and make the blobs of greeny stuff? Ya know like when you wake up in the morning?

I've got them too, optician said it's normal, your only option is to have the eye drained and filled up with synthetic jelly.

Oh squiggly line in my eye fluid.
I see you lurking there on the periphery of my vision.
But when I try to look at you, you scurry away.
Are you shy, squiggly line?
Why only when I ignore you, do you return to the center of my eye?
Oh, squiggly line,
it's alright, you are forgiven.

Dammit was just googling for this quote!

Isn't it some sort of gas?

 

[LordSplodge]

Yeah I have them quite bad

I get them bad because of my Cornea Kertaconus

 

[Sharpz]

had this since i was a kid (5) also got visual snow. really annoys me that i dont see clear images

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.

See an optician if you're worried, but i think these are very common.

i get them too. the worst thing I get is a purple haze around stuff when i'm tired, white walls start to change colour (and I'm not under the influence of anthing!).

 

[keyser]

hah cool yeah i've had those forever, but don't usually notice them. I always thought it was because i stared at the sun or something as a kid, so I feel better try it at home kids!

Sounds like a cheap night out

 

[Dano]

Yup, I have them in my left eye, also get the sparklies at times too, they're right trippy

 

[TheBrooder]

I have them quite badly in both eyes and they **** me off!

 

[benneh]

I experience similar things, lots of small brights dots. I went to an optometrist and had my eyes checked out, perfect 20/20 and apparently the dots and small patterns are totally normal, though it's right to go get checked out in-case of any sort of irregular growth at the back of the eye.

 

[aardvark]

i have them inside my eyes - appeared one summer many many years ago - mine are black blobs/shadows and have been permanent for ~20 years. more noticeable in summer but there is not much i can do about it. - i've never counted them but i have about 10 or so in each eye.

Not as far as I'm aware, I was also told the squiggles are dead cells just floating in the jelly.

 

[Duke]

Yeah I get them in both eyes. Had it for years.

 

[inferno]

I only used to notice them if I looked up into the sky, but in my right eye since the beginning of the year i have had one that can be seen most of the time, kind of annoying but you get used to it. I don't think they ever go away...

do you also suffer from some sort of tinnitus in your ear.?

Because I have this problem too; along with the floaters - very depressing @ times.

Sounds like your graphics processor is overheating. Try underclocking your brain or fitting more adequate cooling through your nose
