I have trailing and afterimages especially at night. It seems like it’s getting worse. Like when I look from one thing to another a series of pictures of that image follows super quick like when something is a blur from going too fast. I’ve gone to many eye doctors and they just shrug. They think it’s odd and have nothing to say about it. I’m worried about long term. Will it get worse and worse? Does anyone else experience this?

i have had the same thing as you, for 3 years...
trailing, after image, floaters, visual snow, palinopsia, etc
try to find a neuro oftalmologist, to rule out something else,
but to be honest this symptoms happend to me, and it hasnt gone worse in 3 years.
no longer see after images, palinopsia or trailing
but my visual snow is with me 24/7
i dont really care, i already got used.
soo my advice here is try not to get stressed over this, this shall pass.
Does occasional blurriness count? Sometimes I think I have to take out my eyeballs and wash them. :-D
I do get some visual weirdness at times. Vision may get a little blurry. At times, it is like someone shines a bright light in my eyes, I get those light tracers.
Omgee I get this. It usually precedes a dizzy spell. I get very lightheaded, feel faint, first. Then the image stutter, and if I don’t just stop, and rest, it goes into full blown vertigo. Throwing up, sweating profusely. I have been to the ER twice. One time low potassium, another slightly dehydrated, another low D. They really don’t know why. I have learned that when it first starts, to drink more water, take D, a potassium pill, some magnesium, a multi-vitamin, and rest. Lots of rest.
I have it all the time when it’s low lighting. Doesn’t precede a headache. It’s so weird. And no one knows anything about it.
