Ever experience a persistent “static in vision”? In this video, Dr. Allen discusses visual snow from visual snow syndrome. We will also be using the visual snow syndrome simulator to further show you what it may look like!

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
