    Have you noticed yet the pervading visual noise that sits at the very front of your vision?
    The colorful shifting shimmers that play on even in the dark.
    Ya know, eye tinnitus.

      I have this when I’m not feeling mentally well. The visual noise is actually a sign for me that I should be extra careful to be nice to others because it’s not them who are more annoying today, it’s me.

          you may see bright lights, wavy or jagged lines, flashing dots or sparkles

          I wouldn’t describe my symptoms like this but I need to read more about this in my native language. Thanks!
