Eye floaters

Did anyone notice their eye floaters become more noticeable during pregnancy? Around 2nd trimester, I noticed my existing floaters became more noticeable and I got a few more new ones in my third trimester. Did it become less noticeable for anyone after they gave birth? I don’t have pre eclampsia. Pre E floaters are scotoma and spots, which I don’t have. I have vitreous floaters.

Arc of light when entering dark room

Hi— I’ve been retina specialist and not retina related. But when I enter a dark room from a lit room, turn off the lights or drive under a dark bridge, I get a a brief arc of flash in my left peripheral vision. Anyone else get this as well? I do have dry eyes. I’m also pregnant, so maybe pregnancy hormones, fluid retention?

Arc light going down peripheral vision

Hi— I am 34 weeks pregnant but at 22 weeks pregnancy, I’ve been experiencing some wild visual disturbances. Whenever I transition from light to dark, I have arc shaped light or orb that goes down my peripheral vision. It happens when I turn off the light and go into the dark, drive under a bridge. I’ve been to retina specialist, so my retina is fine. I have low BP, so no pre eclampsia. It only happens in one eye for up to 3 seconds, so it’s not migraine. Anyone else with this experience? Please positive replies only!

Partial pvd and flashing arcs when urinating

I was recently diagnosed with partial PVD. I have flashing orbs and arcs in my peripheral vision but the odd thing is that it doesn’t flash when I move my eyes or head, it tends to flash randomly even when my head is still and I notice it especially when I’m urinating or after I empty my bladder. Anyone with similar experience? Please no negative stories, I’m trying to be very positive during this process.

Partial posterior vitreous detachment

Hi— how many are in their 30s and early 40s that have partial PVD? I went to see a retina specialist bc I have flashing orb lights in my peripheral vision and OCT showed partial PVD, I think stage 1? Feels like I’m too young for it.
