I think my eye sight must be getting worse cos I've not seen these in years!

In most cases these are left by one of 2 things: small debris on the eye getting blurred and magnified, or as a trail left by the eye being hit by a bright light source as it rolls in it's socket.

So certain lifestyles almost never experience these.

Thats not true, they float around and your eye movement can kind of influence their direction.

They are actually blood cells or proteins floating around in the liquid inside your eyeball. There was this one building where I regularly went to for about a year and they had walls in a white color so bright that I saw these every single time.

I think that qualifies as the first category I mentioned: small debris on the eye getting blurred and magnified.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Well ok but it's not on your eye, it's inside. Also, not sure if I would categorize blood cells as debris and they are not blurry... but nevermind, we both know what you're talking about.

Your brain learns to ignore them, just like how you don't see your nose.

I think that's how I cured my psychosis. When the psychiatrist refused to prescribe anti-psychotics I realised I could only help myself.

So I stopped engaging with then listening to the voices and eventually I stopped hearing them.

I know nothing about psychosis, but this is interesting. Glad you got better.
