Yes,
Also, sometimes when i'm reading a textbook, or reading something on the computer big chunks of it will go blank, and if i move my head the blankness moves along too...its really weird, and hard to explain. |

I have them and always have... it's the liquidy substance in your eyeball clumping up and the reason you see them is cause the block the light coming into your eye and cause a darker spot on the retina. |

Doctors won't do a whole lot when you aren't exhibiting signs that are dangerous.
I had similar neurological anomalies, and I almost ran into oncoming traffic. What did they do? They plugged me into a machine when I was sleep-deprived and looked at what kind of brain waves they could see. Not a whole lot more than that. :sadgreen: |

I dont get them that badly, but i definitely have little specks of light that randomly appear and float in my vision.
They can be close or far...there is no real pattern to their reason.
Ive never gotten them more or less at any particular time. I notice them alot at work, but I think this is because the enviorment is very white and im also bored and paying more attention to my surroundings to find something to interest me.
I dont think these are from losing your vision, or from it going bad. If it is, Im ed, because Ive seen them for several years (probably well before I became a teen). I believe Ive read somewhere that they're a result from things like tv watching, but maybe Im thinking of something else.
Anyways, Ive recently thought of asking other people if they get them, but I wondered how crazy I would sound if i was wrong... |

i get them every here and there.. it's mostly when i'm not active and just sitting around staring at the ceiling or something.. whenever i do get one though.. i close my eyes and focus on it.. once you focus on it it's really neat because it will change shapes and get all crazy.. or atleast for me it does *pokes eyes*
stare at a white wall.. and see if you can actually see your tears.. if you focus hard enough you'll see little streams running down your eyes.. it's cool.. wee! |

It reminds me of the butterflies Vincent sees from Knockin' On Heaven's Door. I know there's an explanation for it, but something still seems so enigmatic about it. It's like seeing ghosts all around you - you feel almost....ethereal when they've really taken over. Kinda scary when you pass out from it though - you don't know what's happened while you were away. |

Actually big ones mean that you're not smart at all but are pretty good at pretending.

:haha:
It was purposely written so a smart person could point that out. It was a test and you passed!
There, that was a decent save. :D

yup got em...they are blood vesse segments from when you were some where in the fetal stage...very normal if not 100% common. Some cases do have an abnormal amount that can cause vision issues and there are some fixes for it...it's funn to play with them when you're bored trying to get them to the middle of your eye with out them getting away :D :D |
