https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucinogen_persisting_perception_disorder

Hallucinogen persisting perception disorder (HPPD) is a non-psychotic disorder in which a person experiences lasting or persistent visual hallucinations or perceptual distortions after using drugs.[1] This includes after psychedelics, dissociatives, entactogens, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and SSRIs.[2][3] Despite being a hallucinogen-specific disorder, the specific contributory role of psychedelic drugs is unknown. Symptoms may include visual snow, trails and after images (palinopsia), light fractals on flat surfaces, intensified colors, altered motion perception, pareidolia, micropsia, and macropsia.[3] Floaters and visual snow may occur in other conditions.[4][5]

All these comments about eye floaters and I'm wondering who has floaters in the form of sacred geometry

[–] GreenDust@lemmings.world 18 points 5 days ago

My eye cells shed fractals.

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 days ago

Lmao the one in the middle is very much a floater, figured the rest was a joke but HPPD is a thing.

That's the visual noise when you close your eyes.

[–] nixon@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 days ago

I do in some sense, but it doesn’t present like eye floaters in the traditional sense though they are projected into my vision.

I have High-Production/Complex Concept->Shape Synesthesia

Listed as the most-complex type on the linked page. https://www.thesynesthesiatree.com/2021/02/concept-shape-synesthesia.html?m=1

I mean I've got a cube but that's it

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 3 points 5 days ago

Huh, that might explain why my vision has been weird for a while and the eye doctor couldn't find a physical cause. My last shroom trip was super intense and not pleasant at all.

If you look at the sky or something bright and uniform in colour, you can often see floaters in the inside of your eyeball. They also move as you try to look at them.

I would suggest not looking though, because once you know there their some people get bothered by it.

You're mocking us, aren't you

[–] Soulphite@reddthat.com 6 points 5 days ago

There there. Their there's, they're there to mock us indeed. There they are.

Many people don't get them till they start approaching middle age. Like everything else that relates to the body, enjoy the good quality vision while you can

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Floaters aren't geometric shapes, though. That looks more like visual hallucinations.

The tails of mine form a cube in my visual static when I close my eyes

[–] MunkyNutts@feddit.online 3 points 5 days ago

My first thought was fractal visiuals from mushrooms.

Do you not notice the gunk that floats inside the fluid within your eye? There's no possibility that the cells in your eyes never shed.

It makes sense to me why there are so many obliviously ignorant people in this world; you have this shit inside your eyes, impossible to miss, access to the sum of all human knowledge in your hand, and yet you still must ask for someone to fucking spoon-feed you the information to you.

[–] Kaffeefriese@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Well now I Know what it means...but in my Eyes they look quite different and the Terminus "always" is not the one i would chose. But its fine i undestand now.

[–] BaroqueInMind@piefed.social 7 points 5 days ago

Sorry for coming off rude to you, im just frustrated with my own level of stupidity and simply projecting it onto you.

[–] Jesus_666@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

The one in the middle is a floater. The ones on the top right and bottom left are psychedelic fractals that are very much not floating around in people's eyeballs.

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 2 points 5 days ago

You know that 'access to the sum of all knowledge'?

Maybe you could use that and learn that not everyone gets them and it's by no means a universal experience. Even people who do have them may not ever notice them due to the size, so by definition will be impossible to miss for some people.

You could also read sites on how not to be irrationally angry while you're at it.
