What kinds of visual disturbances do you experience from anxiety? I’ve had worries about my eyes to begin with, and now occasionally will experience stuff like flickering of my peripheral vision in low light and sparkly visual snow like little pieces of glitter flying around in bright sunshine. I think this also just makes me hyper-aware of any sort of flashing lights outside of my vision which sends me into the vicious cycle of worrying about my eyes even more. I had my eyes dilated twice this year and everything is fine there.

      Hi there 🙋‍♀️ I can relate with my vision becoming unstable. For me, during moments of mental or physical exertion, my visual perception changes immensely. Instead of seeing my surroundings and objects in my surroundings as they are, my eyesight becomes hyperfocused/hyperfixated on dots, lines, and the outlines in my proximity. It's horrible because it makes me become anxious when it's happening 🫠 Thank you for sharing your experiences! Praying all is well for you~ 🙏
