Do you see static, flickering, or snowy vision? Today we explain Visual Snow and Visual Snow Syndrome. In this video, we break down the key symptoms of Visual Snow Syndrome, how they differ from normal vision disturbances, and what doctors look for during diagnosis.

We’ll also explore associated symptoms like light sensitivity, tinnitus, afterimages, and migraine with aura, and explain how visual snow syndrome is more than just “visual static.” Whether you’re seeking answers for yourself or someone you care about, this video offers a clear, doctor-reviewed explanation of what visual snow is—and what it isn’t.

If you’ve been searching for answers, you’re not alone—and this video is here to help.

This is a condition I have personally struggled with my whole life. As a child, teenager and young adult – I felt a bit isolated talking about my symptoms as many friends, family and even doctors I spoke with never understood what I was describing. Without a doubt, my curiosities around my visual experiences of visual snow syndrome have contributed to my journey to eye and vision care. My hope, is that this video and future videos on the subject will be a valuable resource for other people sharing similar experiences. Please give this video a thumbs up and share with friends and family to help spread awareness. Thank you for your support. -Dr. Allen
