    Do you mean like the black and white dots that seem to appear in our eye sight but only white in colour ? the medical profession call these " floaters " I did have when I started but I don't think, well I didn't think of putting it down to the blood thinners as I use to get them before being put onto blood thinning medication. Did you get a Consumer Product Information sheet with your medication ? it will tell you most of the known side effects of that drug.

    I don't know about snow but I have had some visual changes. My left eye has had some sharp pains and some days I find it hard to focus like on a road sign. ( I wear glasses).
