Driving, reading, doing anything with my eyes open. Saw the Optometrist and she said I have floaters in my eyes, which she also said happen to people “our age”. Yuck!!

I remember that, like a tiny floating light in the corner of eye. It wasn’t often enough to worry about.
What I should have been concerned about was the crunch noise when I moved my eye right, left, top or bottom. I thought it was nothing and looking back I should have started a DMT when the noise started and maybe a DMT would have kept my now optic neuritis from taking hold. Now when I move my left eye it still makes the noise, but now there is a little pain.
All I can do now is inform others.

I also experience floaters but I don’t think they’re MS related.

Yes, all my life is affected by peripheral vision issues....when I am walking, I can lose my balance when someone walks up from behind!
