I get floaters and blurred vision regularly. I have been told it is due to anxiety as all my tests have been fine.

I have floaters in my eyes - one is like two little black dots with a hair line between them. I have also experienced blurred vision - when I get dehydrated. If I wake up in a morning and I haven't either had a glass of water through the night or a bedtime drink, I often get this. Sometimes in one eye. Sometimes both.

I'm a glasses wearer and go for regular two yearly eye tests - the last one was in september and had to be done twice to make sure I got the right lenses.

I've never had anything come up on an eye test - always told that my eyes are healthy :)

Yes, I have one floater for years, I'm sure it's the same one as it's kind of circle shaped but its crossed at the ends forming a little x.
It does seem to come and go, I think it just moves out of my line of vision.
I think they are just bits of jelly that have broken away from the eye.

I get blurry vision too but blinking seems to help so maybe my eyes are a bit on the dry side.

I get vision problems as well. My health anxiety started 11 years ago and it first began with vision problems. My vision was blurred and I was convinced that there was something sinister going on. My GP sent me to the optometrist who assured me that there was no evidence of eye disease but that didn't convince me so my GP sent me to an eye specialist. She tested my eyes and reassured me that there was nothing wrong. Two weeks later I was back in her rooms again because I had floaters. I probably had the floaters all along but only began to focus on them once my HA started. Anyway that was the beginning and I soon stopped focusing on my vision and started focusing on other things instead. To cut a long story short I started appearing in my GP's office every second day with some new illness that I was convinced I had. After about 2 months of that he sent me to a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist "cured" me but told me that the anxiety would come back. It did often but for the most part I could control it through the relaxation techniques that he taught me. For the last 2 years I have found it harder and harder to control. It may be time to revisit the psychiatrist. Sorry about the long rant. I was only going to say that many HA sufferers seem to suffer with fears about their vision. I got a bit carried away. :winks:

I have 4-5 eye floaters, maybe more I used to worry about them too. I only really tend to see one of them the rest of them come and go.
