little black spots

[Sexybare]

I keep seeing these little black spots flyin around. What is this? Anyone else with it? Its been happenin off and on all day.

No curtains. They are little specs like a fast flyin bug

Ditto with what I wrote to Sexybare...these issues need to be checked ASAP!

[actressmouse]

Sexybare -- are you seeing spots or is it like a curtain?  Any "flashes" of light?  These could be warning signs of a bigger issue with the retina -- specifically retinal detachment...please do have it checked...the sooner something like that is addressed, the better the outcome.

I get them too. Not diagnosed with Chiari yet though so I don't know if for me it is in relation yet. Good luck! =)

I also get floaters in my vision and the appearance that something is moving in my peripheral vision, has anyone else had that? I would like to know what other kinds of visual disturbances everyone gets. I get flashes of light, blurry vision, double vision, a kaleidoscope type effect, starry vision in one eye when looking to the side and double vision and pain when looking to the sides and up. Anyone have similar things?

I have them too...was told they are retinal floaters.  My eye Dr always said I was normal dont worry about it.  He also said don't worry about blue sclerna.  Yes these hings can be no if deal yet for me it old of helped with early diagnosis.

I see them too from time to time, as well as clear ones.  When it first started happening I thought they were bugs and would duck away from them, lol.

  It could be, not sure u have it, but it could be a reason u r having the issues...
When CSF builds up it cause pressure inside that is the intra part,...cranial is the head...so inside the head pressure....

and yes it can result from obstruction of CSF.....

[Sexybare]

What exactly is increased intra cranial pressure? Is it caused from the moderate blockage i stil have?

[selmaS]

  Sounds like floaters...it is a visual disturbance we have with chiari and with increased inter-cranial pressure.
