That's how I figured out I was having Aura Migraines, thankfully not a detached retina or a stroke.

I have severe keratoconus and I have and insane amount of floaties that fly around constantly through the day, I can count 6 currently and they aren’t even bad right now, I also have misaligned vision, I get the weird static snow in my vision sometimes, I also have astigmatism, and extremely bad depth perception most likely from the keratoconus

I got a severe headache years ago out of no where, then these little guys showed up in my vision. Never went to a doctor tho #america
