    I see brown and tan herringbone with paisley patterns blooming through it.

      That’s closest to mine, honestly. More of a beige and black hounds tooth, though.

    Yes, but its not purple, its just like as if your soul was drifting through the universe and you see tiny dot-sized stars from afar.

    Sometimes I couldn’t sleep and the lights are off and there is a tiny bit of ambient light outside, and I just open my eyes and stare at the celing and also notice a sort of static like that, but with a brighter background light.

    a small proportion of people have this, i have it mildly as well. my opthamologist at the time said it wasnt common and he only knew a teen that had it. its mostly because of the part of yuor brain thats active.

    I’m glad to see most people replying yes, I was like “wait, is it not?”. The only time I don’t see noise is when I look at flat colors on a screen and I’m not a fan.

    Aight! I want to heart from people thinking this is normal, or not, and if you can actually see pictures in your inner space. I feel a doctoral dissertation could be written here.

    My wife and I have never experienced this. 🤷

    Very interesting though.

    Sure is for me, especially in the dark

    But if I focus I can see it everywhere

      it became more pronounced around the time i developed peripheral neuropathy for a while, and RLS like 10 years ago. then its still there but its less severe than it was before.
