I have visions problems and was wondering if anyone could help me with
a diagnosis. I have been to eye specialists who dont have a clue.

I see kind of like a sparklie, glittery type of stuff in certain lights
and it seems to depend on how the light is entering my eyes. I have
done a full 1/4 turn and it goes away, I turn back adn it is there
again. I also see a short bar of bright light that floats down or
sometimes in a different direction. These are not the dust type of
floaters, or any other floaters. My retina looks great, the whole
health of my eyes look great for that matter. can anyone give me any
suggestions? I am currently going through Irlen Eye Institute for
special tinted glasses and they do seem to help some. But what is it
that I have and can it be cured?

I can answer some questions as this is very brief based on it seems I
have a hard time getting things posted on google groups for most of
them that is.

if you don't turn away, but just turn out the light source that seems to
be causing it, and they go away, they are entoptic phenomena that will
probably always be there with that kind of lighting. Irlen will not fix
it, just maybe help get your mind off of it, as their treatment is
mostly (or completely) psychological in nature.
