Hello,

If you guys dont see me online much this weekend its because im taking it easy due to the fact I can barely see anything clearly and ive been asked not to use the computer for a few days by my doctor (stupid doctor!) :?

The other day I started to get weird spots and strange glowing things moving past my eyes and its extremely annoying because it makes it hard to see bugger all lol. Apparently ive got something called "floaters" which isnt too serious but it causes you to see random floating spots.

Ive been given some funky eye wash stuff to use every few hours to help it stop its a combination of what looks like a shot glass and some sterilized alcoholic watery liquid..looks like a shot of vodka they serve in my local night club :lol:

Ill try get online when its not too bad because it comes and goes but usually lasts for about an hour each time it does and I cant stay away from my computer despite what my doctor says :) ..I cant even watch TV so maybe ill just sit and listen to some music or scottie radio if I can see the link lol

Just wanted to let you know where I was incase you missed me. :shock:

For thoughs that don't know about floaters, you can watch the video below, which explains in good detail about it.
I'm dealing with the same thing bro so at least your not alone in this time of despair. lol

I love learning things, so I really enjoyed that video, Mike cooll;

@CodenStuff:
Does it hurt? I've never heard of Floaters and Flashes before. My sister had to dissect a cow eye once, and gel-like stuff came out. If you close your eyes, put your fingers where the eye meets the nose, and moving your fingers up and down, you will see gel-like stuff in your eye. But I wouldn't do that right now, because it may harm your eye further :?

Its good to know im not the only one lol. It doesnt hurt its just very annoying its a little bit like looking through a window thats covered in rain with fog outside and the rain trickling down the window..it just messes with your vision so you cant focus clearly on anything until the spots move out of the way lol.
