Grids in vision update

[Liam1997o]

I posted awhile ago, I am wondering if I can get closure or information.

Male, 24, no health conditions, never used drugs or smoked. From Australia.

In the last two weeks I’ve had: blood test for just about every organ, sugar level, iron, etc etc. two eye doctor visits and an MRI. Blood pressure check etc.


All came back healthy.

I noticed this a month ago but it could’ve been there since forever.

When I stay in a dark room for awhile then rapidly go in a bright lit room and look at a bright plain surface like a wall, when my eyes are in that period of “greying out/adjusting to the brightness” I see a very faint glowing grid pattern in my vision for a couple of seconds until my eyes adjust. It only appears on the plain surfaces, it doesn’t create blind spots, it’s in entire visual field and not hemisphere split, it ONLY is visible if I do this exact hyper awareness experiment, no other symptoms occur.

Anyone heard of this?

This type of problem has been posted in one form or another. GIven the negative work up most likely it is just the eye shifting gears between dark adaption and light adaptation. Unless something changes then don't worry about it.
