Do any of you experience visual snow? If you aren't sure what it is, it's like seeing static on a television.
Thanks for this!

I don't but I'm curious about it. Is it unpleasant for you, and does it interfere with your vision? It sounds like it would be a pain, and not something I would like :-/

Yeah I do. I have since I was a teenager. I think it's anxiety related.

It's not that unpleasant but can be slightly annoying. For me, it's kind of translucent, so I can see through it just fine. It only happens on occassion. I just noticed it only happens to me in certain mental states, so I was curious if anyone else experienced it. I think several causes have been examined as to why people get it, but nothing has been settled on as an actual cause yet.

They might be something called "vitreous floaters". I've had them since I was a kid.

For me it's more like constant rain. I can't tell whether it's raining anymore when looking as it's falling down (or not). I have to look at the ground.
