Problems with vision, seeing little sparklies and blind spots...?!
Question: For about 4 years now I've been having problems with my eyesight. I keep seeing litte sparkly dots, little lines, and tiny pinpoint blind spots. They occur randomly whenever, I could be sitting doing nothing or running.
I have had problems with migranes my entire life. They started to get worse in 2003. I would get a migrane if I physically exerted myself in any way (running / weight lifting). It seems to have stopped (Knock on wood), but I am still having the issues with my sight (which came with the migranes in 2003).

i have the sparklies too, and a few blind spots...migranes too.........i get them when i go from a dimly lit place to a bright place quickly, if i get up too fast and such (the sparklies i mean) i don't know what exactly causes it, i did have a brain tumor a few years ago, but have the same issues before and after, i am however, a diabetic...which affects the vision. i've always assumed that is why i get them...i also sometimes see clear floating bubbles...the same way the sparklies come
did you get checked for a stigma
Pinched Nerve maybe? Go to a masseuse.
u need to go to an eye doctor
it's age.
Have you seen an optometrist about the problems you're having...?
I have the same thing with my sight; don't worry about it. As far as I know everybody has them. Go to the eye doctor and ask what the black ring around your eyes is all about, and if you can fill it in. Then e-mail me back at theorangemanddude@yahoo.com
It sounds like an optical migraine. As opposed to a real migraine, an optical migraine also involves an aura that comes before a migraine attack, but there is the absence of pain. This is rarer than the migraine that comes with severe pain. It is also know as acephalgic migraine or visual or ocular migraine. It is a migraine aura unaccompanied by headache.
The visual disturbances that are experienced are flashing lights that look like zigzag or
