eye floaters?

It's not. We all have them. They get worse when you are tired, usually your brain filters them out. More visible when you look at bright stuff.

They will "disappear", and you'll confirm here later .

I'm sure a bad monitor caused most of mine, but as soon as you are born, you will have some.

Read about the signs of retina detachment - flashes of light etc. - those you need to worry about. Doesn't seem like you have those, just mentioning it casually.

Back to floaters, they can be broken by a laser beam but only n cases where they impair your vision badly. I, for one, wouldn't want anything of that sort touching my eyes .

Of course, if you are worried and suddenly got tons of them, check with an ophthalmologist, otherwise don't mind them, and they "will go away".

 

Not even funny how long it took me to find out how to call them when I asked my doc about it .

 

Yes I had them multiple times throughout my reboot. The last time I had them they lasted almost 2 months.

 

Floaters can definitely be a side effect of rebooting. I’ve seen enough testimonies to confirm this. More often, they can also be the direct result of over-masturbation, to which I and many others have been a victim of.

I also have that and i have it since i was 8 years old and at that time i was far from fapping, it is nothing special, some years Will be better , some Will be worst but you can habituate to that

 

Since 2 months ago i started again to have Eye floaks dont know why but i went to doctor and he didnt say anything about that , só some months or years after they Will disapear, you just have to dont focus on the Eye floaks

 

Were you getting less sleep and more fixated on a screen, though? Just wondering out loud.

 

See my previous question, it's just a theory.

 

Over-masturbation can cause oxidative stress as well as deficiencies that result from an over-stimulation of the nervous system, which explains the increase in eye floaters as well as the dizziness many individuals report to feel after long binging. I myself have experienced this, and it’s been consistent every time I’ve relapsed for extended periods. There have simply been too many individuals whose testimonies match to dismiss it as coincidence.

 

For this is def the case. Eye floaters reduced by 50% after 1 month nfp

 

I am not, just appreciating the discussion.

Although, hoping sincerely that I properly recall the science behind these (science itself is not even necessarily right always), I don't see how, sudden, clumps of protein would start to form. These, as far as we know, are forever; yet still they would dissintegrate, for the theory to be valid. The natural question is: are they, or do we simply stop noticing them, due to our brains filtering them out?

The passing of time also seems to "cure" them, by filtering them out. In my case, I've never associated them with fapping. Just my 2 cents.

 

I am no scientist nor do I know the full scientific explanation for this phenomenon when linked to PMO. However I do know that the description in the link I provided perfectly coincides with the experiences I’ve had as well as what others have reported experiencing. I’d like to mention that I first started experiencing eye floaters around late 2016 when my PMO habit was at its height. I never experienced them becoming less noticeable or reducing whatsoever until I went on my first NoFap streak around February of last year. It might also be worthy to note that the eye floaters you experience are not a result of PMO at all, whereas some others who experience them have a direct correlation to PMO and/or withdrawal symptoms.
