See grey and black checkered patterns when u rub your eyes?

Question

what is that? Do you see other patterns?

Answer 1

Yes, that happens to me. I would like to know why though... weird.

Answer 2

It is just an illusion with your eyes. Yes i do see patterns, i see a lot of moving shapes, dots, lines and a lot more. Your eyes see things when you look at the sun BUT DON"T TRY THAT. Some times its bright outside and i see dots. Hope that helps.

Answer 3

I'm not sure what it is, but I see purple circles and white dots...

Answer 4

Yes at times. I also see t.v. static and black and white spirals.

Answer 5

Answer 6

Yes you are absolutely right i also see grey and black checkered patterns when i rub my eyes.

Answer 7

stop doing that or you will rub out the  TV contact lens that the machines have put over your pupils so you don't see that your just a big battery in a vat, that is one of billions connected to the computer matrix!

Answer 8

when I rub my eyes for a while i see patterns that look like faint grey smoke swirling around with a black background.  I remember as a kid I would rub my eyes for a long time just to see the patterns and then after my eyes would be red and extremely dry lol.
