It started subtly. I’d walk outside on a sunny afternoon, and as soon as I glanced toward the sky, there they were—tiny thread-like specks or drifting shadows, floating aimlessly across my vision. But strangely enough, the moment I stepped back indoors, they vanished. At first, I brushed it off, thinking maybe it was just a…
If you’ve ever stared up at the sky or glanced at a blank wall and suddenly noticed strange, drifting shapes in your vision — you’re not alone. These floating specs, swirls, or cobweb-like strands can be as baffling as they are annoying. I remember sitting at my desk, thinking a bug flew past my eye,…
About a year after my cataract surgery, I started noticing something odd. Tiny shadows or squiggly lines began drifting across my vision—like translucent debris or specs that refused to go away when I blinked. At first, I thought maybe it was just dryness or fatigue.

So, there I was, sitting on the couch one weekend, sipping tea and scrolling through my phone, when out of nowhere, I noticed this weird little squiggle drifting across my vision. At first, I thought it was a strand of hair, but nope—it moved when I moved my eyes. Floaters, huh? I’d heard of them…
