Lately, when I dine al fresco, as I do often in Florida, much of my time is spent wondering if I’m watching a gnat buzz around my meal, or if it’s just a floater plaguing my vision.
Gnat

Floaters

Today I swatted at an insect only to realize it was literally all in my head. It’s almost as if I have a lame 3D movie playing continuously, and I keep reaching for the illusion.

I’m sure I’ll get used to the effect, but what if a real gnat lands on my meal? What if I swallow one? I have a bad feeling about this.
Peace, people!

Make sure you go to ER when a floater obstructs your vision, or when you see the light flashes and black vignette . My photographer friend is recovering after his laser surgery after he got detached retina, and I had the same thing last year. Keep your eye on those insects π

I get those floaters too. I feel like such an idiot when I start swatting at – literally – thin air. My ophthalmologist says that they are “normal” as we get older… another thing to enjoy as we age!

Normal becomes weird, doesnβt it?
