Is it possible to see microscopically with my plain eyes?

Question

Because sometimes I am squinting my eyes until they are just about closed, and I am able to clearly see what I see on microscopes. There are those little circles everywhere and some are moving and look just like amoebas. I don't generally do it on purpose- it just happens. And it only happens if my eyes are moist.

Answer 1

you could be seeing the microbes that exist in the tears in your eyes. many people are able to do things such as this, but its not to the extent that you may think.

Answer 2

They're called floaters

Yeah, sometimes they're single cells and protein structures.

Or are you seeing something different?

Answer 3

no
