Hi all, I have put together this free visual snow app for windows/mac/linux- it superimposes noise filters over your screen. As a VS experiencer myself I have found this reduces symptoms and anxiety. Please feel free to download here.

Hi all, I developed visual snow, afterimage, trailing and photophobia after taking 2 short corticoids course two months ago. I noticed major improvements within the first couple of weeks. I actually saw pixels and trailing back then now I’d say I have a “mild to moderate” visual snow ( basically sparkly fine dots across my entire vision- I don’t see it when I’m outside, but see it when I’m inside). I don’t have image trailing anymore. Afterimages improved a lot and I’d say now they’re mild now. Over the past weeks I have had subtle improvements but at times I have set ups backs. In the past week (two days) I woke up to “no snow” for a brief second or two and then it just switched on while my eyes were open. Today I had a set back and the sparkly dots seemed denser when I woke up (not sure if it’s correlated but I’ve had a mild cold for the past few days). It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions for me since this started but I’d say I’m getting closer to acceptance. My question is I wanted to get pregnant later this year. Does anybody here know or experience themselves of the impact of pregnancy hormones on the sparkly dots/visual snow ? For C section, they inject anesthesia so I’m concerned about how that could impact my vision too. It’s been difficult to find any doctors that can answer this question. Thank you
