Yellow spots: This is an unusual visual symptom. In macular degeneration, yellow deposits are found in the retina, but visual symptoms are distorted vision and loss of vision. Some medications can cause a yellowish cast to the vision if the dosage is too high (digoxin). Some floaters might be perceived as spots, and a visual migraine could rarely look like this. Consider an eye exam to be sure all is ok.
