It started last night, before that my eyes where fine. I got home and started noticing a floating black spot, at first I thought it was a nat lol It has not gone away and sometimes appears darker. My house was vandalized last night, could these spots be caused by stress??

Yes most definately.
i would go and get it checked though. It could be something serious. My mother had the same problem " seeing spots" and it resulted in her blacking out behind the wheel. She didn't survive, so go and get it checked for YOUR OWN SAFETY AND OTHERS
It could be a sign of a low salt intake into your body. which is causing you to see spots as an early sign rather than an immediate action Please Please Please go and get it checked.
Good Luck

It;s happening so soon because your exposed to sun or even just the fact your eyes are exposed to lots of lighting in the house. Stress does have an effect on the eyes, but 'I dont think spots is one of them.

it sounds like a migraine. sometimes before you get really bad ones, you'll see black spots (or just one) floating in front of your eyes. then an hour later, or even a day or two later, you'll get the full on migraine. chances are though, it's just stress. relax, take a deep breath, and rest :]

i don't know. i see a couple dark spots that follow my vision around everywhere. it's just in one eye though. close one eye and then the other, and see if they're only in one. sometimes if i rub my eye hard enough i can move the spot to a more convenient place in my vision, but it's always there. i rarely notice it unless i'm trying to find it, or sometimes when i'm reading. hey you let me know if you find a way to get rid of it. i've had them forever

Those spots are called "floaties" or floaters. It's the same as skin particles flaking off. An eye doctor once told me that everybody has them, but not everybody notices them.

It's not serious. I've had them and they went away. The slang term for them is called "Floaters" as they usually go up and down. Your body has about 500,000 chemical reactions going off all the time. Some just go astray once in awhile.

It could be caused by stress, but if it continues to happen I would definately go to the doctor. Infact I would call them and see what they say, if it is not stress related you should go to the doctor before it gets worse.

They could; blood pressure plays a part in the internal pressure in your eyes.
Be a good idea to see your optometrist or physician if they stay around for more than a few days.
Also, get your blood pressure checked.

It's most likely only a dead cell floating around in your feild of vision and this is totally normal. If you are really conserned go see your eye doctor.

Yes they could have been caused by stress.
Going forward stay vigilent. IF you continue to see them you may have the beginings of a detached retina.
But I doubt it.
