It caught me off guard, honestly. I was hiking in blistering summer heat, sweating buckets, sunglasses fogged, barely holding onto my water bottle. Later that evening, as I lay in bed trying to cool off, I noticed these tiny gray wisps drifting across my vision. At first, I thought it was just fatigue or glare….
If you’ve ever gotten a relaxing facial massage—complete with soothing oils and warm towels—and then, out of nowhere, noticed strange shapes drifting across your vision, you’re not alone. I remember one session where I left the spa thinking I had glitter stuck in my eye. Turns out, it wasn’t glitter at all—it was something much…
Let me tell you something weird that happened after I got hit with a nasty fever last winter. The fever broke, I started to feel better… but then something strange caught my eye—literally. These little translucent squiggles were drifting around every time I looked at a blank wall or the sky. At first, I thought…
So here’s the thing—I’ve always been a big fan of essential oils. Lavender in the diffuser before bed, peppermint when I have a headache, and even a little tea tree diluted for skin.

If you’ve ever walked away from a long virtual meeting feeling like your eyes just aged five years, you’re not alone. I’ve…
Ever been chilling in front of your aquarium, just zoning out into those gentle blue lights, when—bam!—suddenly you notice these weird floaty things drifting across your vision?
