Bro what I tought i was the only one I even went to a lot of doctors and took tons of supplements Tf is it

[–] Mamertine@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago (3 children)

My eye doctor calls them "floaters". They're pretty common from how the Dr talks about them. Dr says come in if there's suddenly a spike in them. I gather that's a sign something bad is happening with the eye.

I got hit in the eye (long story short, my cousin learned to throw cards like Gambit and nailed me straight in the eye).

I was seeing flashes so went to an eye doctor, and they warned me of retinal detachment. Aside from the flashes, a sudden increase in floaters is another warning sign.

So he figured out how fo throw the cards, but has pisspoor aim. Yeah I have a cousin who was like that.

[–] snugglesthefalse@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago

Yeah afaik it's just normal dead cells but if there's loads it's a sign that things are falling apart.

I got a sudden spike in floaters... Fun fact: Retinal repair is a lot like spot welding... If you're spot welding the back of your eye with a laser!

Blood vessels in your eye

Visual snow syndrome. Yeah, the fussy tv static you also see? Ain't normal and also part of it. You likely have constant ringing in your ears? Tinnitus is almost always linked with VSS.

[–] deranger@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That’s a different thing. Floaters are objects in your vitreous humor.

[–] dipshit@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

That’s my kind of humor!

[–] thecookingsenpai@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I have a plethora of oddities but no static vision (sometimes a buzz in the ear but like a strong buzz, rarely btw). No tinnitus or at least I think so, maybe i am just used

Those tiny tubes are normal to be in your eye but you usually don't notice them (they are body cells or proteins). Only when you are looking at something bright (eg. a completely white wall) do you see them. If you regularly see them and they dont go away if the room is less well lit then you should get it checked out though.
