No problem with their explanations,but I can't deny that both my floaters,BFEP,Visual Snow started with anxiety/dp/dr.

I feel like I've always had floaters but since DP made me a little more in my head and hyper-aware, I started noticing them more.

I also used to smoke marijuana a lot, so that's probably what caused the visual snow or floaters.

DP inhibits your ability to selectively focus; you become conscious of the floaters because the mechanism for filtering them out of your vision isn't working properly. I saw floaters continuously for the first year (2010).

My floaters were visible on the back of my eyes during the check up by the optometrist. He wants me to see a specialist eye doctor. When on Klonopin for 7+ years the floaters were less visible and less bothering for me.

I didn't have any problems with floaters, tracers or afterimages before dp hit. I think I started seeing them just a few days after getting dp. I've had my eyes checked several times and they're fine.

From the research I've done, that's simply a bunch of symptoms that accompany dp.

They are white blood cells in front of your eye. [Edit: according to your video, BFEP is from white blood cells and the 'floaters' are from proteins and red blood cells.]

Unlike the eye of the eagle, much of the 'wiring' of the human eye runs in front of the eye (and likely its range of vision).

This might explain the eye a bit: Richard Dawkins:

How can you be sure it wasn't the other way around?

John, you look great buddy!!! And that's a good point..

Ah I'd always thought my floaters were caused by coming off anti depressants after using them for a week.
