Everyone on here talking about theirs going away over time and I'm wondering if I'm supposed to go in for regular scraping as I get older
They're little bits of debris and fibrous points in the gel matrix of your eye. They don't go away ever, but they float to a part of your eye you don't pay as much attention to. They tend to "go away" in people who consistently sleep on the same side. If you're a back sleeper, or move around a lot, they tend to stick near your macula (your main focal point).
When I run ocular scans on people I can see them drifting around. They're not a problem unless they're dense or dark, then they might be blood due to a retinal tear or diabetic retinopathy.
So, in theory, I should be able to get in one of these centrifuges that NASA has, and they’ll all get pushed to one side?
I’ve got some childhood trauma associated with those things that always reminds me of the taste and texture of a mouth full of dirt.
So, uh... trigger warning?
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
trigger warning?
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Among other things, yes
Think thry never go away but your brain ignores them like it ignores your nose (close one eye)
Mine often become visible to me shortly before experiencing a migraine. Is there a reason for this? I've told my doctor, but they didn't seem to react to this information much, just said it can happen.
Not sure about seeing floaters before migraines, but what you see could be migraine auras. I have them and they affect my field of vision prior to a migraine. I'll see flashy/persistent "dots" or completely be unable to focus on certain things, like I have a blind spot. Hate it, but it at least gives me time to grab meds before the pain sets in. Usually happens ~20-60 minutes before onset.
Mine look like what's in the picture, but they're sparkly. And yeah, sometimes they're so bad they disrupt my vision, but not always.
Is it like a star? I heard it could be a sign of retinal tear.
Joke's on you, my nose covers half of my view on both eyes.
Them going away is probably an illusion, probably a result of sensory adaptation.
