This is a photo from 1945 of liberated Jewish concentration camp survivors at Dachau. Are some of them making the "Nazi salute", as well?

That is a Nazi salute. Tinnitus does not make you blind, although some sufferers develop floaters. Take care, big guy.

@matt89, how are you doing now?

@DaveG, can I ask if you took any medications, like antidepressants, to help with anxiety and lack of sleep?

Hi Kenneth, i can relate to your story. Can you manipulate your tinnitus with neck or jaw movements? I also developed tinnitus after a period of health anxiety, and much later developed eye floaters unfortunately. How are you doing? Any developments? Take care, wish you all the best!

...journey began on December 28th, just after Christmas. I am 30 years old and live on the East Coast of Canada. Recently, I developed eye floaters, which have been very distressing, especially after a dismissive optometrist appointment earlier in the month. In my frustration, I began...

...at a barber shop. It wasn’t my fault, but it has deeply affected me. My mental health has suffered, and my vision is now impacted with floaters and visual snow. I’m struggling so much. I used to be such a happy, grateful person, but now I feel doomed for the rest of my life. My tinnitus...

You're most welcome. You may want to search the forums for discussions on visual snow or floaters. These topics have been covered before, and even Markku, the founder of Tinnitus Talk, shared his experiences with visual snow and floaters some time ago. If you search for "visual snow Markku,"...

...after my last post, something strange started happening with my vision. It began to vibrate and flicker, with dots appearing throughout. Floaters also showed up, and looking away from light sources started causing afterimages. Patterns and text lines vibrate, making it hard to focus. Even...

I am thinking about starting the migraine program as well. Three months in, how has your loudness hyperacusis and reactive tinnitus improved? Are you able to do anything now that you could not do three months ago? Thanks!

...and in early November, visual snow started appearing. Initially, it was very light static, but it has worsened significantly. Now I see more floaters, extreme blue-field entoptic phenomena, and my night vision has deteriorated with starbursts and static-like interference. I reached out to...

...should I do? I’ve also developed visual snow syndrome, which I think is tied to Prednisolone. No one even believes me. I have hundreds of floaters, visual snow syndrome, dysacusis, hyperacusis, reactive tinnitus, and regular tinnitus in my left ear. The only thing I haven’t developed yet is...

Hello brother going through the same mine started after prednisolone injections from my arm before that i had mild tinnitus, now i have severe t, dysacusis, hyperacusis and burning pain in my ears hundreds of floaters i am only 29 whats your problems rn?

...are incredibly adaptable. Once it knows you do not care and you are saying, “Yeah, whatever,” it starts to filter it out, just like with eye floaters. I had not thought about my floaters in months, but if I focus on them, they are still there. So, while I still have tinnitus 24/7, I can...

I had floaters a year before my tinnitus started, but my tinnitus was caused by headphones.

Tinnitus often makes people more aware of their body and its sensations. Floaters typically come and go on their own, and they may disappear as quickly as they appeared.

I’m experiencing the same issue as you. I started noticing eye floaters about 10 years ago, especially when I was outside in daylight. Shortly after that, I began hearing electrical noises (tinnitus) coming from my head. My optometrist ran some tests and found everything to be fine with my eyes...

I've noticed that when I'm experiencing a tinnitus spike or am particularly bothered by my tinnitus, my perception of floaters seems to increase. I don't necessarily have more floaters; I just think the gating mechanism for tinnitus is similar to that of eye floaters. So, when my perception of...

Hi. Came across a post where you said 2 weeks in from THC withdrawal tinnitus started and eye floaters. I am having the same experience. Did you ever find out the reasoning and did it ever improve for you? Thanks! Take care!

I had floaters a year before my T. Were the floaters a sign that T was coming? They started suddenly, just like T did.

Thanks. I have tried Nortriptyline with a bit of success but I will try a few other things. The straight up eye pain is the weirdest symptom.

This sounds like vestibular/ocular migraine. I have had the same issue since an acoustic trauma in February 2023, as well as floaters and light sensitivity in my vision. Nortriptyline and Gabapentin are helping, as well as magnesium, riboflavin, CoQ10, and vitamin D.

One year ago, I had tinnitus. Now I have tinnitus, eye floaters and irritable bowel syndrome. What is happening? Rapid decline.

Lucky me, I got VSS! In the cool club. Light sensitivity, floaters, negative afterimages, starbursts, BFEP. Frontotemporal headaches. Yay.

Why continue with both tinnitus and floaters? I am looking for just one reason

I know it's easier said than done when struggling but if you have a clear vision with no floaters, please appreciate it

T and eye floaters together are too much. I cannot live like this

A neurologist I saw (the most helpful of them all) talked about central sensitization but didn’t mention thalamic dysrhythmia. I’ll read about it. Interestingly, you mention TMJ & neck issues because an ongoing problem of mine is the right side of my head, neck, and down to my hip. Are...

...failure" triggered by a sinus infection, potentially involving thalamic dysrhythmia and/or perhaps central sensitization. The increase in floaters is the telltale sign. You mentioned being familiar with my story. For me, the noise trauma was the primary factor, but I still think a viral sinus...

..."electric" and hissed and buzzed in my head. I had no idea what was happening. My right ear felt cold and wet inside. I also had an onset of floaters. The white noise I had listened to every night for ten years sounded different. It was terrifying. Showers didn’t mask it. Test after test...

My eye doctor says everyone has floaters. Then how come I never had any 2 weeks ago?

Dear TT. Did any of you develop eye floaters after taking vitamins / supplements? I am trying to pinpoint what caused mine. Thanks!

Might need to reduce working hours even more now due to floaters.

Due to floaters, I may need to get my eyes dilated. Any of you have any experience with this, and did it worsen T? Thanks in advance!

I think my eye floaters are due to taking vitamin B3. It can cause eye issues. So incredibly stupid

I am thinking out loud, not wanting to offend anyone: if the brain is overstimulated (e.g. I now suddenly see eye floaters), could we heal

If I had the talent and energy, I would study medicine. Why so many of us have eye floaters? Clearly this is an illness of the senses

Chad, I am going through the same. I remember eye floaters from before, but they never bothered me and weren't noticeable. Now, one and a half years after my tinnitus worsened, I have a significant number of bothersome eye floaters. It is so scary that this is happening to our senses. Are your...
