visual shapes, lines, colors
sclerosis
Monday, October 05, 2009 at 12:15 PMThis is primarily the reason I sought treatment. If I look at a lighted object, or trees with sunlight behind them, I see the trees, but as a light. It's hard to explain. We have tile floors and I see the grids where the grout is, and when I look away for a second I see the grids as white lines. I see lingering images where the image is still in my vision when I have stopped looking at it. It's creepy! I see some lettering linger on signs, computer, etc. I sometimes can't go online because the light coming from behind makes my vision worse. They thought it was migraines. I even had my vision lose all color last December and it went inverted. That was pretty scary! It came right back tho. I was just diagnosed 10 days ago and haven't started the lovely injectibles yet.

Figures out of the corners, move.......I've kinda gotten used to that. I don't really notice anymore. I have noticed my "blind spot". I've had it tested, (for optic nuritis or however you spell it) according to my nuero-opthemologist, if you "notice your blind spot" it indicates possible "swelling" of the optic nerve. I don't know what that might mean for me. I have looked at things, or read something, and I know what I'm looking at, but I'm aware of "blank spots". Letters in a word will disapear, or there are "holes" in the image where my blind spot are. Strange, but more and more usual. Let me know how things work out. I still haven't had a diagnosis, and have to go back for ANOTHER MRI, but who knows. Good luck to you.

Hey there!
I am so glad you agreed to post about this and I am curious too if others will comment about their visual experiences. I am wondering if you were beginning to see one of those zigzaggy auras that I sometimes see because it starts with lines that seem to move.
Anything is possible with MS.
Thanks again for sharing your experience here.
