VSS Survivor - Cindy

1/10/2022

My name is Cindy Miller and I have had Visual Snow Syndrome for most of my life. In fact, I can’t seem to remember when it started.  I have suspected that I had this syndrome many years ago as I have seen various posts on the symptoms.  It seems recently that VSS has come to light and its about time.  I have been to so many eye docs and doctors who have tried to treat the symptoms separately.  I have not run across any specialist that is aware of VSS or even remotely interested in learning more about VSS. 

I wear Irlen filtered glasses ( I am a certified screener) and the lenses have been a big coping mechanism for me to cope with life without chronic headaches. Otherwise the world, spins and swirls and reading is very difficult for me.  I was not aware of the other various symptoms of VSS such as tinnitus, lack of night vision and depersonalization. and anxiety.  I have always suffered from great anxiety and feel that my brain is on constant overload.  Additionally, I am blind in my left eye and the VSS in my right eye makes everything much harder. 

​My hope is that someday I will be able to receive the right treatment for VSS and maybe encounter the chance to see things clearly.  Thank you Eye On Vision for your research and awareness!
