Luminous points that shimmer in the field of vision can indicate various diseases, such as glaucoma.
When should eye fibrillation lead to the doctor.
In the case of flickering or rushing eyes, there are dancing points of light in the field of vision, which can vary in color and number.
Doctors differentiate between short-term and permanent flickering of the eyes.
The chronic form is associated with the fact that those affected perceive the points of light even with their eyes closed.
There can be various causes * - they are often harmless, but eye flickering can also indicate illness.
Common causes of eye flicker: stress, overexertion, fatigue
Eye noise is often announced by a slightly blurred vision - when it comes to the actual flickering, this can be perceived very differently.
For example, some of those affected report a large number of small,
snowflake-like spots that begin to dance before their eyes
.
Others suffer from a less pronounced shape.
While short-term fibrillation disappears after a while, those with a long-term form suffer from it all the time.
Eye flicker can be sudden or creep out.
For example, unspecific visual disturbances can herald an attack, which often starts at the outer edges of the field of vision.
Not only is the eye clouded by the noise of the eyes:
the attacks are extremely
stressful for
those affected, and extreme tiredness can be the result
.
Tension-related back and neck pain, dizziness * and nausea are also common.
Eye flickering is often a sign of fatigue, eye strain or stress,
as Heilpraxisnet informs.
If the person concerned spares himself, the symptoms usually subside on their own.
However, if your eyes flicker more and more frequently and / or the episodes persist for a long time, you should consult a doctor.
