Has your fucked up vision ever hindered your vidya experience?

>normal people can't see clouds
Good to know OP

I have floaters but nothing serious. I don't notice them at all unless i really focus on them.

>retard friend shined a laser in my eye when I was a kid
feels bad

Isn't that usually the result of a tumor on the optic nerve causing it to misfire?

The arrows are pointed at them. They are floaties

my vision is fine, but my hands are starting to hurt from too much video games and work.

Having floaters is normal though?

Did anyone else get kicks when they were a kid by closing their eyes and rolling them while slightly pressing down on the sides, and see those black and white bullseyes?

no but I once got a sciotoma I think from high blood pressure

it went away within 10-15 minutes but I didn't know what was happening and it was scary

Floaters. They fuck with me every day and make me think my monitor is filthy. Pisses me the fuck off.

I only have tiny spherical floaters that are usually only visible against a bright sky, none of this crazy huge worm shit.

I used to have floaters when I was young, never had visual snow.
But I am legally blind if I take off my glasses.

>shined a laser in my eye and looked at the sun on purpose just to see what would happen
yipee
my vision seems surprisingly okay but it amazes me the kind of weird self destructive shit i could casually do as a kid for no apparent reason

Yeah probably. That used to happen to me occasionally.

this desu. good thing i've had my fill of fps in my childhood so i dont need to play them anymore

Anyone else here with visual snow have a faint spot in the center of their vision? My macula and retina seem to be in tip top shape, but I'll be seeing a retinologist to confirm this. Though, the spot came with the sudden onset of visual snow. Also
HOLY FUCK FUCKING FUCK THIS GODDAMN PHOTOSENSITIVITY AND THE BILLION LITTLE FLOATERS
I CANT ENJOY THE OUTDOORS ANYMORE FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

Aren't floaters just proteins on your eye or something? I thought that was normal for everyone.

Not to the extent of visual snow. Anything white and bright gives you spaghetti vision.

I can only see floaties sometimes like after a really big yawn. What does this mean Yea Forums?

When I was bored in class I would always stare at the fluro lights and then close my eyes and let the floater form, and then open my eyes and watch it fly around

I didn't have any migraine that came with mine which made it even weirder

That's your ki, user. But don't fucking tell anyone. Don't be a retard.

I know for certain it's not the majority norm. I never had it before until I was 25 years old.

hey
I get a very bad case of floaters whenever I bike to work
my vision is otherwise completely normal
should I be worried?

Had this too. It was the sketchiest moment of my life. I legit thought I was going to go blind in the coming days. Thank fuck it was a year ago and nothing happened since. Went to an eye "doctor" and the guy basically said "yeah you're fine now pay me and get out of my office." Thanks Goldberg.

I got two migraines as a kid, both in the middle of class, and both times these things popped up before my head started fucking pounding so badly I had to go home and lay down for hours. What the fuck is this and what causes them? I'm 22 now, shit happened when I was in 5th/6th grade and it hasn't happened since then. Are they a normal occurrence or do I have brain aliens?

What the fuck does "negative afterimage" mean? Is it like one of those visual processing tricks our brain uses? I've seen the other shit before but I don't think I've ever seen that one.

i had floaters for a short while a few years ago, never since. I think they were caused by stress, it was a pretty stressful time for me.
the snow thing looks horrifying, who the hell has that?

Ask a doc. You'll get more mileage; hilariously enough, though, Yea Forums is the one place in the whole of the internet I've gotten more clarity about weird shit going on with me.

I've got pretty heavy visual snow, and the focus point of my left eye has a 'tear' so to speak, it looks like just really dense snow with no detail. I never notice it until I think about it, but if I close my right eye and look at something it's really obvious. The tear is about a centimeter wide.

I caused it by staring into the sun for long periods of time during a bout of psychosis

>high blood pressure

Stage 5 cancer, I'm sorry user.

At that young age it could as well have been growth issues. Headaches from growth spurts are not too rare.

no but when i was younger i thought i maybe got visual snow by staring too much at screens lol
that was before i even knew it is called visual snow

Ever stared at a light, looked away, and still saw said light? It's kinda like that. I've had the reflection of the sun get stuck in my vision for a whole fucking month. All because I glanced at a floor soaking in the sun's 8am glorious incandescence.

It’s something about blood pressure in the skull changing and the sinuses, and it’s just how some people are, no way around it, the only way I’ve found out how to deal with them is to either smoke weed and ride it out or go to sleep, sleep is the better one but you can’t always just drop your shit and lie down because all of a sudden your orbital bones start imploding in the middle of the day

>>A7A225389
i've had this since i was 5

What are those points of light from? I learned in a psych class that it's one of the symptoms of schizophrenia, but there has to be other causes if they're this prevalent.

>tfw the visual snow is just blood cells
Real scary shit is seeing a magnification of your eye cells when wearing glasses

I dunno, but I get something kind of like that sometimes as well as little spots or lines at the edge of my vision that even move some times but disappear when I try to look at them. Saw an eye doctor and got a bunch of tests done but they said nothing was wrong so who knows.

I'm just glad they have a name for it, I thought it was raining indoors when I was 6

It’s the blue light effect, everyone gets those, it’s white blood cells moving through the capillaries in your eyes that you can see against the light of the sky

As for visual snow, it isn’t properly understood other than it is going on in the brain and not the eye or optical nerve

25

mine is a little bit high so the doctor suggested for me to take like 5 mg of beta blocker daily or 10-20 if I'm anxious

I only had the sciotoma once and never since even though I don't actually take medication every day.

unless it was an industrial laser it didnt do permanent damage

wtf thats some donnie darko shit. Do you just follow it around?

They don't even know what's causing it. That's a long way from finding a cure. At least it's starting to get acknowledged. Still most people have no idea what I'm talking about when I tell them what I see.

There were like 5 times in my life where it seemed like the sun turned off and back on again for a split second

Hell. My optometrist didn't know what I was talking about. I gotta get to a city or something.

People who suffer from specific forms of migranes usually experience a "halo" before hand which can be anything from your visual distortions to partial blindness to full blown synthesesia.

It’s more like it’s on a film in front of your eyes, but like visual snow it kind of sticks to the environment while still scraggilingly off into itself

Ah, that's pretty interesting, thanks.

You are probably just getting dust in your eyes. I have flaoters all the time but everyone has them occasionally.

Another user, but I also get like little sparkler looking shit in my eyes after a big sneeze

You confuse the snow with the dancing white spots. The latter is blood cells you can see when staring at the blue sky. The former is like the snow from a cheap webcam or night vision cameras.

Why do y'all act like this is impeding your life. I've seen snow my whole life, and had tinnitus since I was 7. You live with it.

Jesus man calm down

these freak me out, they're rare for me but sometimes I hear stuff like a female voice whispering while I'm trying to fall asleep

it's hard to really explain

it feels like you can still see but your eyes can't really focus on anything, like you still see the scene but it would be hard to read text

as a kid I looked directly into a laser pointer for like five straight minutes just to see what would happen. it made my vision very purple in that eye for several minutes, but it didn't permanently damage anything. got 20-20 vision

It's all still technically light according to our eyes and brain. It's like ghost images that disappear after a milisecond or second or even a minute or two. I was playing STALKER the other day taking long range shots through a scope, and saw the ring of the scope everywhere I looked for a minute. I'll get that same effect from driving down a straight road bordered by trees, which is what the picture is trying to convey.

Only a couple of times when I was younger when I thought someone said my name very clearly near me, and once when I came home and heard my mom talking to my brother upstairs but when she came down and I asked she said he wasn’t home and she wasn’t talking to anyone

Also if I’m eavesdropping and can’t quit hear it my mind fills the blanks and I think I sometimes hear rather paranoid things

whatever helps you sleep

Permanent snow and other visual effects can definitely result from heavy psychedelic usage

I can see the floaters if I concentrate on it but not normally

>calm down
Funny advice, coming from a man who got his jimmies rustled because of words.

cool story bro

Mine are more like hearing voices/conversations in buzzing noises and running water. It's pretty easy to tune out, and I can almost always tell what's real and what's not, but it's still freaky.

>Scotoma

So that's what that was, i kind of freaked out a bit for a moment, luckily it went away. Internet says it can happen due to basically super shit diet which fits me to a tee so yeah..

Is that what it is? My family has always talked about hearing old radios in the house at night.

user you've had those 3D glasses on for years, we've been trying to tell you about it but you refuse to listen

I only notice it when i look at bright things. Sky, clouds, walls, etc. But I've always had it so it is normal for me.

>tfw hear indistinct voices when I try to sleep
life would be so much better if i weren't autistic

Shit son. I still remember some ASMR-tier chick whispering "You know?" into my ear just as I was about to fall asleep after reading about demons.

According to you lol

Just take off the retro 3D glasses

My lazy eye (strabismus) gives me a wider field of vision.

No one is actually affected by it we just want to talk about it because we don’t go and talk about things normally like properly adjusted people and instead do it anonymously on a Hong Kong fridge building forum

Oh damn fuck this place i really thought i had tinnitus

Your whole family? If they're hallucinating, then you probably have issues too. Do you hear them too?

I hear whispering right in my ear, buzzing and my name called randomly. I'm grateful it's only like 3 times a month.

Reminds me of the time I heard birds in the middle of the night in winter. Then I found out it's just some noise in my ears that my brain interpreted as tweeting. Stupid thing.

Honestly they just charge too much for everything. Consultation is getting expensive.

I went to a doctor because I'd get dizzy, have a pain in my chest and feel like my heart was in a vice when I did strenuous activity like heavy lifting or sex.

They told me I was a ok. That I was actually in great health and sent me a bill for 300.

Kinda tangential but anyone else get small headaches when it's bright outside and you walk a distance on the sidewalk? I guess it's because I have light-colored eyes, I'm really considering sunglasses because it's annoying.

Very funny, anons, very funny.

>in the hot sun in 90°+ for a few hours
>start seeing fast small concentric semi circles at the very center of my vision that move quickly outward and disappear
Is this normal? It only last am hour or so

Reminds me when my phone was vibrating in my pocket. I was walking around whole fucking house trying to find it and coulnd't pin point its location because it was as loud in every place. took me like 1 min to realize it was in my fucking pocket.

What wait I thought eye floaters were a normal thing that everyone has? What the fuck.

There's no evidence that confirms that in any way. The strongest proven correlation is between visual snow and migraines.
Even if poor vision could be caused by psychadelics, there's a difference between "psychadelics can cause visual effects" and "visual effects are from doing too much drugs", because the latter implies that the only thing that causes visual snow and floaters is drugs, which is retarded nonsense.

I used to do that as a kid. I thought it "cleaned" my eyes.

>see an attractive woman

Do you guys ever get this?

Had them pretty bad back before my insomnia was being managed. They weren't constant or unaccountable; they usually occurred when I was startled or spacing out. Sudden noises would seem impossibly loud and things I didn't hear clearly would sound 'sinister.'
Reflexively decked my sister when she jumped out around a corner to spook me. Flattened the bridge of her nose and still feel fucking awful about it ten years later.

I have a shitload of floaters, but my mind just tunes them out unless I start focusing on them.

I get migraines from looking at bright lights after drinking coffee for a while, they hurt like hell but at least drinking just half a cup makes them much less likely to happen.

It doesn’t cause it like he said but it doesn’t make people aware of it, most people who have it never even realize unless someone tells them, because it’s so easy to assume everyone sees the same way

Don't do this it makes mustard gas

Oh yeah, there are other causes for it. I guess my "definitely" was a bit strong because studies on psychedelics are rare, but with all the anecdotes I'd be surprised if there was no connection

I'm 24 now and pretty much need glasses all the time. Nobody told me this would happen.

Jesus Christ user. I pray they'll fix you up one of these days.

I have snow when I close my eyes, then it looks like millions of little black dots with red cores i can barely see. Can't see them with eyes open unless I fixate on a very simple surface. With eyes open they just look transparent with bright centers and slightly darker rings. I don't even see them unless I try to.

What, no witty "I'M NOT MAD YOU'RE MAD" comeback, fag? Am I not responding the way your friends told you I'd respond?

I am shortsightet and therefore had a shitload of floaters, never thought I could learn to live with them but apparently they get smaller over the years or dissolve or shit. I have barely any floaters left but it took 3-6 years for them to disappear fully.

What's funny is that doctors are still paying off their student loans well into their 50s even with those prices

I heard the opposite in regards to age. You're not supposed to get laser eye surgery until 30+ because your eyes are still changing. You have to update it every 10-15 years, but if you get it young you have to update it more frequently than that.

If it were haemorrhoids the blood would be bright red. Dark red blood from ass indicated internal bleeding.

Pretty much everyone who gets it gives it a glowing recommendation. One of the people I know who got it wound up with dry eyes afterwards and still shills for it and says it's worth it.

You shouldn't get it until after you're definitely done growing (like post puberty in your mid 20's) but you should get it as early as possibly because it doesn't stop vision degradation due to age.

Piles is bright red blood because it’s fresh, dark blood is older or mixed with other material, and comes from bleeding somewhere in the intestines

I literally went to the doctors last week for ass bleeding. Luckily I live in the UK so them not doing anything didn't cost me a dime.

Uhh, 20/15 is better than 20/20, nerd
t. Had 20/10 in childhood, but is now 20/20 in my right eye and 20/25 in my left

I have IRL temporal anti-aliasing. Stuff is very blurry when it's moving even a little bit, but then it's much sharper when it's totally still.

Also, I hate the fake HDR started in HL2. I don't need games artificially making my eyes feels like shit, they already are.

That's cause the sun going through your eyelids makes you see red. Your eyes' color receptors for the color red literally tire out and partially stop working for a little while. When you open your eyes everything is tinted cyan because your blue and green receptors have kept working pretty much normally the entire time.

If this is a recent thing you might want to see a doctor. Flashes of light in the corner of the eye are a sign of a detached retina.

I was pretty depressed at the time but didn't want my parents to find me dead from suicide and spend the rest of their lives wondering if they could have helped me. I hoped it was prostate cancer or something as grave so I could die an apparently blameless death. Thank you for reading my blog.

that's gay as hell user but I went through the exact same thing too when I was younger so I understand

I sometimes get weird alternating bands of light and dark right after I wake up but it doesn't really look like that. Any ideas?

I have a weird floater in my left eye, two fixed dots close to each other, but they only appear for 10-20 seconds every other week or so.
Feels amazing to know some residue is floating in my eye liquid stuff, not nasty at all.

>being able to see bacteria with naked eye

It's just daily eye drops each morning yeah. Sucks if you don't want to go from one dependency (glasses) to another (drops) but it's probably the way preferable option.

There's two types. Near vision and far vision. You might enjoy decent far vision in both eyes, but have something messed up when your eyes try to zoom out on something close. How often do you go outside? Try testing both eyes again out and about

Once I sat out in the sun for 15 minutes. Then when I got back inside my vision was tinted green for like 15 mins afterwards. So that was weird.

well

fuck off then

That's what I've heard and I don't know how I'll cope.

You'd better hold that shit against your parents, that's a dick move. Make sure you remind them every chance you get that they're the reason you failed in school

rekt

my optometrist told me i had high ocular pressure, but only in one eye
he said not to worry about it, but i'll probably end up developing a glaucoma in that eye at some point
oh well, i'll get a cool eyepatch or something

user, ignore the other guy. Parents are just human, sometimes they make dumb mistakes. The fact they got you glasses at all shows that they care about you, even if they don't realize the extent to which they hurt you

I'm a recluse, I spend my free time on the computer inside.

When I do go outside I can see fairly far, I put on my ex's glasses one time because I was curios, I was suddenly able to see individual leaves on a tree that was at least a third a mile away, but it fucking hurt my eyes.

Please send help

I'm just thinking of how to prepare for the future if the worst should happen with war or whatever.
Depend on glasses that can be broken or daily drops unless I want paid.

When you inevitably get it, pray for nearsightedness, not farsightedness. Farsightedness fucking sucks.

I've got this mildly. I see a thin layer of static over everything, and I'm sensitive to light - on a sunny day even clean concrete footpaths get a bit too bright for me to not have to squint.

Get floaters too but thankfully never really had issues with afterimages. There's been instances where I've had sharp bright/dark contrasts and sort of noticed it but only briefly.

eye exam is easy. they do the exam and make your glasses in the same visit.

I remember when I was young and had 20/10, I could make out individual needles on trees that had to be over a mile away.
Now I can't even see shit right in front of me. I wanna kms, the world lost all its color. Doesn't help that when I was happy I woke up all day and suddenly couldn't feel emotion anymore - turns out it's a rare genetic form of depression
REEEEEEEEE

My father is an optician and he told me if that ever happens to go see an eye doctor to be on the safe side

Get glasses, stock up on drops

You should see a doctor to make sure your retina isn't partially detached.

I read this somewhere too but it never seemed to be the issue. I was pretty well hydrated because at the time. The first time it happened to me was before a really bad cold however. It was awful. It was really thick like I had to squeeze my dick like a yogurt tube to get the last bit out sometimes.

My advice to people with floaters and the like.

Open your windows during the day and use light-themes on websites. If you're in the light all of the time, you get used to floaters and they're basically not there. The only time that floaters will pop out and flood your vision is when you've been sitting in a dark room all day and then take a step out into the light.

>cant use headphones anymore in my right ear because it might make tinnitus worse
>cant get fully immersed in vidya because of this
>left year is slowly getting weaker too
Why god why? I was just a boy who liked music.

I have "floaters" that are like black strings that move around everywhere

Call me a pussy, but I'm terrified of having to use glasses and lose the ability to see as I get old like
. And also the fact that my eyesight is deteriorating. I don't want to have to quit vidya for my eyes, even though I know it's probably the right thing.

>you can't off your self at that point

Same lol

absolutely agree
blindness is the worst possible thing I can think of
Fuck Id rather lose all my limbs than go blind if I had to choose.

the human body is depressing man. Incredible potential in youth, a few years slip by and its all ripped away.

The only thing that would keep me going if I lost all vision would be music and the chance I might get those hypnagogic hallucinations blind people sometimes can get that would be cool

One day when I was like 14 I woke up and couldn't see anything for about 5 minutes, the last 2 minutes of it was remembering the quickest path to a gun in my house.

no but my vidya experience ruined my vision

Oh man, I thought I had visual snow that I could only see on the blue sky but that's exactly what it is. The dancing looks cool.

In 2012 i unironically felt like I was invincible. Now its all breaking down.

creepy

It’s gotta be that way, that’s the way the world has to be put together to have it all make sense

1 part good, 3 parts bad, otherwise there’s no positive and no negative and we can’t navigate in the chaos

youll lose it even faster if you're squinting all the time desu

Fuck I had this once, and hopefully never again

Still pissed about this

floaties are normal.

I definitely openly blame them when it comes up but I hold the lion's share of resentment for all the hardass teachers that literally just would not put me at the front row when I asked.

wow what a cunt

Why your eyes were closed no damage would have been done

wat, how could anyone see it like the right but then see normally during the day

Fuck, you're right even though my vision isn't bad enough for me to squint yet. I'll get it checked and hope it's not too bad or too late for me

No I'd stare at the sun first
Then close my eyes and walk around like a bumbling retard trying to follow the markings

its called hats, sunglasses and staying inside

WHAT HAPPENED TO ME

It's 'normal' in the sense that everyone gets them to a certain degree.
The goop that makes up the vitreous body of the eye has a lot of protein chains suspended in it. Sometimes those
fold and crumple together in bad ways which eventually leads to them becoming opaque and visible.

A floater here or there you can cope with, but some people basically have to look through cobwebs 24/7.
For those, surgery exists which can drain the vitreous body from the eye and fit artificial replacements. Iirc often based on noble gases?

we all have night vision. Sit in the dark for a while, let your eyes adjust to the dark, and then you can walk around your house picking up only the faintest bits of light from street lamps outside of your house to illuminate your house.
