Looks Like Ceiling Fan In Peripheral Vision

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.

Looks like ceiling fan in peripheral vision.

Then when i look in the way of the shimmering it usually stops. It is something like viewing things through a rotating fan blade which would be revolving about 150 rpm. Mostly when going to a dark room from light or vice versa. Does anyone else see flickering in their peripheral vision.

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. I had an occurence a few years back when it seemed i was being swarmed by a bunch of black ash. I have 20 20 vision and can even see in the pitch black darkness. There are times when i see swirling lights like a brightly lit ceiling fan mostly in my peripheral vision.

Sometimes it s just a blotch. It was wierd then faded. 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. Like if someome lit somepaper on fire and it was bowing in the wind.

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. What do you mean by ceiling fan effect. When i un focus my eyes when looking at lights i can see it as well. Sometimes its peripheral sometimes the effect is in a shape like a circle directly in my line of sight.

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. This seems silly to bring up but otoh who knows maybe others have experienced this. I also have static look on the periphery of my vision on the entire right half of my left eye toward my nose. I only had the wavy water like vision in part of my vision in my left eye it was as if the center of my vision was fine and that was circled by the wavy vision i could see color and light but it was like i was under water looking up and someone was making the water ripple but only an outer circle.

Has never lasted more that 30 minutes to and hour and once gone. I ll explain a little more just in case if you have an idea what s going on and need more information. 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.
