Last month, I was out for a walk on a seemingly clear afternoon when suddenly, tiny floating specs danced across my vision. It wasn’t the first time I’d noticed these annoyances, but this time felt different. The air was heavy, almost suffocating, and it hit me—could the air quality really be triggering these floaters? Turns…
It started subtly for me—just a few odd specks dancing across my vision after a long day in front of the computer. I figured it was just eye strain or maybe dust.

I used to brush it off, chalking it up to eye strain after long nights staring at my laptop screen. But when it started happening more frequently — especially after those marathon workdays — I…
Ever suddenly noticed little cobwebs or gray specks drifting around in your field of vision? I sure have.
