Can you see air if your looking?
9 Comments

About 2 years ago I discovered that if I were to look at the nothingness,(not looking directly at anything) or what I call air, I see little particles floating around everywhere. And another thing that I would say is strange is when I was in elementry school I could look at the floor in the bathroom, (the kind with all the little tiles) and see horizontal and vertical lines everywhere. Even as an adult I can see the lines on the floor, but mostly in bathrooms. By the way I have 20/20 vision. Is this just weird or has any one expience either one of these?
Do you think it's normal?

You have vitreous floater - I've had them since I was 4 (I'm 16 now) and I got seriously depressed about them a few years back as I have an unusually bad case of floaters (but I've got over it now).Is this similar to what you see?:

They are mostly caused by either the shrinkage of the vitreous humour (mostly due to aging) or a knock to the head. If you look up at the sky on a claer day, you will most likely see some.
Read the wikipedia page on floaters for more information:

I always see them when I wake up in the morning; I just assumed I was crazy. I didn't know it was an actual thing.

You can see them on the school bus, when the sun use to hit my eyes.

The old adage of learning something new every day holds true. I also have this and never knew there was a term for it, never mind that it was so well documented.

Thanks.
