siftbotsays...Moving this video to Zawash's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

PlayhousePalssays...*animation The first time I "saw" these in MY eyes I freaked out!

deathcowsays...Mine are like this in both eyes:
http://www.barransclass.com/phys1090/circus/Gillespie_B/EyeFloaters2.jpg
I got them all 15 years ago when an insanely powerful flash discharged right in front of my eyes. (INSTANT pain ON) Over the next few days my eyes filled with them.
When I look at highly collimated light (like a powerful view in a microscope or telescope) I can see ALLLLL of them swimming in 3D.
A bright sunny day blue sky is like looking through egg whites.
gwiz665says...Dem sky sprites! I've wondered what they were for a long time. *promote

Fairbssays...Sorry to hear that. All the time? I take it there's no way to fix? Sounds kind of like some sort of eye trauma.

deathcowsays...@Fairbs I have good days and bad days with them... but the good days are when I am inside not looking at blue skies : ) Or snowy fields, that can be bad. I actually switch my videosift to black and for my job (as software developer) I switch my editors to black backgrounds also. This minimizes their appearance.
For telescopes and microscopes , I use binoviewers which dramatically reduce the perception of floaters as two eyes are averaged out.
