how many of you have got these annoying little squiggly things floating around your field of vision all the time? i think they're pretty cool. it's like i've got my own personal heads-up display that i can never turn off and whose sole purpose is to annoy me and drive me slowly insane

anyway, do you think they can they be cured with acupuncture?

are these parasitic worms friend or foe to the hated eye floaters? that's literally all i care about. maybe i can put them in my eye and let them duke it out. sounds like it could be a pretty cool battle, and i've got front-row seats

I have these really bad, OP. Also some black dots as well as the thing like in your photo that looks like a parasite.

There is no known cause of them, and there is sadly also no remedy for them.

I had a bad trip 8 years ago and now I have static in my vision perception and a crazy amount of floaters and phosphenes every day that give me recurring panic attacks. Owned.

i don't have the panic attacks (prob cause i'm not a bitch) but i do have the shitloads of floaters/phosphenes and they are probably from doing shitloads of acid

It's just body stuff in your eye, part of your vision. I haven't seen any since I had my corneas ablated. You should give that a try.

i went to the eye doctor and she told me eye floaters were harmless and that i was just being a whiny little bitch who should man up for once in his worthless life and deal with it.

then she shined this really bright yellow light in my pupils and made me cry, and later she shot a big puff of air at my eyeball and laughed when it made me flinch. she's a pretty good eye doctor and i trust her.

There's also a laser surgery but my eye doctor told me that it makes floaters more plentiful just smaller.
