Vitreous Detachment

You’re looking at the sky or a white wall, and suddenly you see little floaty dots or flashes of light, like tiny fireflies zipping around your vision. Then things look a little cloudy or blurry for a while. What’s going on?

Let’s say you’re doing something totally normal like eating lunch, going to work, or taking a walk, and all of a sudden, part of your vision disappears. It might look like a blank spot, or a blurry spot. Then, a few minutes later your vision is back to normal.

This could be something called a TIA, or Transient Ischemic Attack which is a mini-stroke that sometimes affects how you see.
