For years, I thought the random squiggly lines and dots drifting across my vision were just a part of getting older—or maybe the result of staring at my screen too long. Turns out, they had a name: eye floaters. And when I started digging deeper, I was floored by the number of things that could…
So there I was, staring at my laptop screen for what felt like the millionth Zoom meeting of the week, when those annoying little floaters started dancing across my vision again. I blinked. Rubbed my eyes. Sighed. It made me wonder—was it the dry eyes from too much screen time? Or were those floaters just…
I never thought something as routine as chemotherapy would lead to floaters dancing in my vision. During my second treatment cycle, I noticed these shadowy specks drifting across my line of sight—some looked like cobwebs, others like transparent squiggles. I figured it was fatigue or stress.

What I was experiencing were…
It started with a shadow—like a wisp of cobweb floating across my vision. I blinked, rubbed my eyes, tried focusing on different objects. But the squiggly little specks just danced with me. Fast forward a few weeks later, I was sitting in an ophthalmologist’s office hearing the words: “retinal vein occlusion.” If you’ve ever wondered…
