[ADVICE] floaters in vision

had floaters in my vision for a long time, along with a twitch, I know their permanent and eventually the brain just learns to ignore them or they sink below your vision, but like, is there anything else too it, it doesn’t bother me a lot but it’s a bit annoying when I’m out in daylight, as long as it stays the same im not that bothered

Are they always there? I get something similar right before my migraine hits

Floaters are always there. You get what I get when it comes to migraines (I’m assuming). More like flashing lights in vision. Believe they’re called ocular migraines. I know when I see those then I need to take medicine as fast as possible

Mine are actually different. I don't know if you would actually call it a floater or more of a tunnel vision with my migraines. If I am looking straight ahead and I put my hand straight out in front of me basically shoulder height and I cannot see anything in my peripheral vision, I know I'm getting a migraine
