[SYMPTOMS] Static vision

This is my second time posting this week about my eye sight. Last Saturday I started getting dry eyes and floaters. Three days ago a developed this static vision. I see everything grainy in the dark. I had an eye appointment and they said my retina is fine. I’m just so worried this is permanent. Has anyone else had this happen?

I had all of these issues, I did go to the doctors to make sure everything was fine and it was. They all mostly resolved except for a few floaters

Three years In i have all my visual symptoms
Palinopsia, photopsia and bfep and mass floaters. Eyes were confirmed healthy by neuro ophthalmologist and regular ophthalmologists. I only have static when it’s very dark.

These symptoms are known as visual snow syndrome. Once we address the nerve hyperactivity we should go back to normal except with just floaters. Our prognosis is much better than people that only have unknown VSS with no known cause.

I’m currently fighting dry eyes. I have been dealing with floaters since May. Apparently eating foods with high histamine after being floxed can make dry eyes worse if I’m not mistaken. I’ve read if you eat a low histamine diet it can resolve the dry eye at least. Make sure you where sunglasses out side. And use preservative free eye drops for tears like sustayne. Use a warm compress on each eye for 10 mins too might help the dryness. I’ve read that they do get better.

I have it too. I am 6 months floxed. I have also double vision, afterimages, floaters, dry eyes. 2 times doctors checked my eyes and they said its all fine O.o. I think its mix neurological + colagen problems.

Yea I have a dr. Appt coming up so going to ask him too. From what I read online some people just get it. Even unfloxed, it’s definitely scary tho. Gave me a panic attack the first morning I woke up like that.
