How many of you also experience visual snow along with your schizoaffective? I do.

I'm not sure what you mean. Are we talking flurries or blizzard? I'm not trying to be funny, I'm just trying to understand.
Sometimes things look foggy or smokey to me. Not music video foggy. Occasionally, when I'm really tired and/or don't get to bed before my meds kick in, I get flashing. The ophthalmologist said it's called photopsia. I doubt this will be helpful. I figured it might be in the same category. Last edited by jaynedough; Nov 27, 2014 at 03:58 PM. Reason: Clarification |

I know what you mean, like there is a static film over everything. I experience this often, not sure why and I'm not entirely sure if i have schizoaffective. I still relate though :/ It perpetuates my thought that the world is a damn hologram and i see through it sometimes.

I suffer from it severely (visual snow, not conformed schizoaffective), and it messes with my vision because despite my lenses are apparently the correct prescription (though I do think they've gotten worse) the snow makes everything blurry anyways. I feel like I'm making it up when I tells docs, because they don't know what it is or what it does and why. When I'm under the influence the pattern of the snow changes (usually in overlapping x's on a grid like way). Sometimes too my eyes can't focused, and go double unless I reposition my viewing angle.
Do you have astigmatism(s) in your eye(s) too? I have it in both eyes. Not sure if that could be related at all. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
