Mostly when going to a dark room from light or vice versa.
Ceiling fan peripheral vision.
I ll explain a little more just in case if you have an idea what s going on and need more information.
Sometimes it s just a blotch.
There are times when i see swirling lights like a brightly lit ceiling fan mostly in my peripheral vision.
Starting 4 years ago when i took a very bad buck from a 3yo horse i was training i have experienced what seems like pinwheels ceiling fans kaleidoscope colors in my vision.
It did look like ceiling fan flutter but in all corners of my vision.
Some migraine patients get a dizzy or off balance sensation when riding in a car and seeing the scenery move by the car.
It s a medical emergency.
I m not going insane i think out of the corner of my right eye i can see something that appears to be a spinning color blob my mind registers it as a ceiling fan but when i look at it it moves and there s no reflective surface that could reflect it.
When my eyes are in this condition it is very difficult to read because i must slow my rate of comprehension while my brain makes out words behind the flashings.
The first time it happened i went to the er but they said i just had a headache i did have one the worst i had ever had they.
The thing is that sometimes my vision seems to vibrate a little mostly in my peripheral vision it seems to be happening mainly when coming from a dark area and entering a bright one but this isn t always the case.
What do you mean by ceiling fan effect.
This seems silly to bring up but otoh who knows maybe others have experienced this.
It s a medical.
Sometimes its peripheral sometimes the effect is in a shape like a circle directly in my line of sight.
I also have static look on the periphery of my vision on the entire right half of my left eye toward my nose.
Once i came back inside.
Does anyone else see flickering in their peripheral vision.
Has never lasted more that 30 minutes to and hour and once gone.
A sudden onset of severe throbbing eye pain headaches blurred vision rainbow halos around lights red eyes nausea and vomiting.
I closed my eyes and watched they lasted only a minute or so but i didn t detect any spin.
I have noticed that about one or two times per week during the last 4 5 months that early in the mornings i get a mild flickering of my vision.
Then when i look in the way of the shimmering it usually stops.
Swirling lights interupt normal vision rspowell.
I occasionally have this flickering in my peripheral vision that is just like the shadow that a ceiling fan with a light on it throws on the ceiling.
I had laser for a retinal hole almost 3 weeks ago and i have a black blind spot 4 black dots but i don t see them all of the time.
Please offer some other.
I had the peripheral vision fluttering this morning after looking at the sky for about 3 minutes just before dawn.
It is something like viewing things through a rotating fan blade which would be revolving about 150 rpm.
