The first time I had one of these, I had just heard some horror stories
about detached retinas. I made an emergency trip to our ophthalmologist,
who reassured me and then said it was really a circulatory problem, and
not a retinal problem. So I left we one worry replaced by another.
I don’t perceive any geometric patterns, though. Mine are more like
amoebae who have rolled in glitter.

that come about from the glop that is my brain or retina or whatever?
It's
all glop.
