Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS) is a neurological disorder that impacts an individual’s vision, hearing, cognition, sensory processing, and quality of life. The defining characteristic of VSS is seeing visual snow, which can be described as seeing static, flickering dots, and flashing lights 24/7 (with your eyes both open and closed). Some describe it as trying to see in the middle of a snowstorm or through a snow globe that has been shaken up. VSS entails more than just seeing visual snow. People with VSS also commonly experience many other debilitating visual and non-visual symptoms. VSS symptoms affect an estimated 2-3% of the world’s population.

I'm seeing stars even though it isn't night
I left the beach but there's sand in my eyes
I'm climbing peaks buts this view is outta sight
The sun speaks I can see it
Feel the curtain falling
Hear the curtain calling
