    Was at the hospital in the autumn 2017 with exactly the cell like floaters you describe was told floaters take many forms and these things that look like they are under a microscope are just another form of them caused by the vitreous coming away from back of eye.Had thorough exam to confirm it.

      Hello did you have it in both eyes and has it dissapeared?

      No mine is just effecting one eye and at the moment seem to be clumping together which apparently is not uncommon  to form one larger floater.It seems to change size  at times but apparently the closer the floater is to your retina the bigger it can seem at times.

      I dont think we have quite the same problem,mine is literally like thousands of little pin prick dots that are moving very slowly and if i lool t a white wall i sde them more obvious;also my vision is fuzzy and its like there is lights flickering.im starting to think its my brain and not my eyes.stress is making it worse to be fair

      Yes now you mention them being the size of pinpricks that is not quite the same as mine.Visual migraines can cause some of the effects you mention but would not be continuing without a break for as long as you describe.I would be assured though in your case that three experts having seen you and finding nothing serious that these symtoms will settle.

    I've been having the same stuff happen to me constantly. I've had a lot of fuzzy blurry and spotty vision too. I've seen neurologists and an opthamologist and they blame it on anxiety.

      Yes, it fluctuates daily. but it's mostly tons of floaters, blurry vision, random blind spots that come and go all day, fuzzy foggy vision. I've seen an opthamologist, neurologist, neuro ophthalmologist, and no answers.
