Seeing Things When Stressed

When experiencing high amounts of stress, does anyone else see things in the corners of their eyes? or black spots in their peripherals?

Yes! Happened when I’ve been really stressed and anxious. I describe them as shadows. One of my red flags I need to slow down.

I think those spots are called floaters. An eye doctor can give you more information and help.

I see black floaters a lot too. But I don't know what that means. I have cataract's so I didn't know if that was the problem or what. If your vision gets worse and you are on Prednisone you may have cataract's also.
