The awareness of it tends to come and go. Its present all the time. However it may be demonstrable only under certain conditions such as looking at a blue background like the sky.
I do not know anyone in your area. If you want to proceed further I would suggest a neuro-ophthalmologist (different than a neurologist). Find one near you at www.aao.org or most all medical school ophthalmology departments have one.

Also, does this phenomena come and go? Does it typically go away from time to time?
Thank you Dr Hagan.
From those articles I'm reading that it's more or less a "normal" visual side effect I'm noticing (if it's in fact that).
Would there be a special type of eye doctor to see to preform a "blue field entoptoscopy"? Would I be best seeing a general opthamologist, retina specialist, neuro-opthamologist, cornea specialist? Would you happen to know of anyone specific in the central NJ area?
It isn't suggestive of migraine. It is suggestive of an entopic phenomena known as the blue field effect or "flying corpsule" phenomena.
Use the search feature to read more and read the www.wikipedia.com section on entopic phenomena.
