You know that feeling when you’re having fun bouncing around on a trampoline—pure joy, total freedom—until suddenly, you notice something strange floating across your vision? It’s not sweat or dust. It’s those weird squiggly things. That was me last summer. After an energetic round of trampoline flips with my nephews, I noticed floaters for the…
It was a Tuesday morning. I remember because I had barely slept the night before — the pulsing behind my eye had already begun its unwelcome routine. Like many who deal with migraines, I’ve tried everything from prescription meds to herbal teas. But nothing surprised me more than how something as simple as stretching helped…
Ever had one of those days where your head feels like it’s in a vice, your sinuses are screaming, and then — boom — you start noticing weird little squiggly shadows floating across your vision? I’ve been there. At first, I thought it was just my eyes being tired or dry. But when the floaters…

One afternoon while staring at my laptop, I noticed something odd—tiny specks and wavy lines dancing in my peripheral vision.

The shapes didn’t shimmer or disappear after a…
I remember the first time I noticed them—those little drifting specs in my vision. They were annoying, sure, but mostly harmless. At least that’s what I told myself.
