Myodesopsia: This is a common occurrence as a person awakens. It is called Myodesopsia and can involve seeing squiggly lines, cobwebs, dark or light spots and flecks upon awakening. It occurs more as we age, due to consistency changes of the gel within the eye itself and the reduced elasticity of the lens of the eye. See an eye Dr annually to keep your eyes in good condition and to catch any problems early.
