Not sure where to put this, so if it is in the wrong place please move it to the correct spot
For about 3 months i've noticed that my vision is static-y, like an aerial that's slightly off so the tv picture is kind of snowy. The thing is when i noticed it i also realised that it's been happening for a while. It is worst at night, particularly when the lights are off but there's just enough light filtering in that i can somewhat see and i don't notice it at all when i'm outside during the day, unless i close my eyes (yes i can see it even with eyes close). If my eyes are focus on an area/object the focal point is clear but the static will be everywhere else; if i'm not focus then it's completely covering my vision
I do have migraines, but only once every year or so, and this is different to the visual disturbances/auras i have with migraines
In the last year i have had chiropractor work on my neck and back, been put under anesthetic twice, been put on the birth control pill and had my reflux meds changed. As i don't remember when it started happening, but fairly sure it's only been in the last year, i have no idea if any of these things are the cause, or maybe something totally different. The only other idea is too much time on the pc, so been cutting that back atm
I'm planning on visiting the Optometrist (had plans before i even noticed this) but am now thinking that after easter (cos i don't want to be dealing with endo during easter and my daughter still has a week til school goes on holidays) i will go off the pill for about a month, as the pill is the only thing i can try to rule out
so i'm wondering has anyone else ever experience this?
