Answer 2

If you haven't received a blow to the head, I'd consider being checked for migraine. I suffer these, and seeing "spots" or "stars" just before the onset is a very common symptom.

Other symptoms to look out for include nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, fatigue, irritability, sensitivity to light and sound, weakness on one side of the body, and pain that usually (though not always) affects only one side of the head. There may be only some of these symptoms present, or only one or two - or you may have all of them.

Do you notice the "stars" at any particular time? Just before your period, after eating or drinking certain things, or when you're stressed or sleep-deprived? These are common times that migraineurs (migraine suffers) experience an attack.

As a broad generalisation, there are two types of migraine: typical, and atypical. In a typical migraine, pain (and other symptoms) are experienced; in an atypical migraine, suffers often experience all the symptoms except for the pain. (This is what my doctor explained to me when he diagnosed me.)

There are some preventative medications, but they're not a surefire way to combat them. I manage mine with over-the-counter pain relievers combined with a prescription medication called Maxolon, which controls the nausea. In the past I've had migraines that caused me to vomit so violently that I brought up blood. Migraines are much more than a "headache". Also, some migraineurs find that caffeine brings on a migraine; others find it *helps* their migraine. If it's migraines you're suffering, you'll need to experiment to find out what works for you, but do so under your doctor's supervision.

Other triggers can include oranges and orange juice, chocolate, wine, cheese, chemicals (ink, perfume, cigarette smoke, etc.) and some food additives.

After a while of suffering migraines, you will start to learn your triggers, and your warning signs. When you reach this stage, you can take medication at the first sign and (hopefully) minimise or avert the migraine altogether.

Another thing I would investigate is allergy. Food allergy in particular can do some peculiar things to people. If you've started consuming something new, or there's something different in your house (air freshener, pet treatment of some sort, new plant in the garden) try to work out if your symptoms started around the time the change occured. Also check the ingredients of foods that you usually eat, just in case the manufacturer has recently changed them. Don't think that because you've always eaten something in particular, you can't develop an allergy. I developed a serious allergy to preservative 202 as a teenager - seemingly out of the blue. I'd never had issues with it previously, but for some reason or another it now brings on urticaria (hives) and asthma. I've no idea why this happens. If it's an additive you're allergic to, also find out the name of it. Preservative 202 is also called "potassium sorbate" - and it can be listed as either one on ingredients and product information. Look beyond just your food. I have found 202 in soaps, shampoos, drinks, fruit juices, dairy and bakery products, frozen food, shaving cream, and even cat treats. You'd be amazed where it turns up. Check everything.

See your doctor as soon as possible. A symptom like this could be neurological in its origins - not necessarily related to your eyes at all. Good luck. :)

Answer 3

Can you explain further? If they are in your vision even when you shut your eyes, they could be what is called silent migrains. I sometimes see what looks like zigzag neon white (silver) that block out part of my vision. My eye doctor told me these are like what people with migrains get, except without the pain. Hope this helps. I looked this up on the internet and was surprised there were so many others with this, as no one I know has ever had anything like this. but be sure to have your eyes checked incase its something else.
