Those little things swimming about are supposed to be floaters, which, I believe, are little pieces of the retina that break off. My husband has so many spots in his eyes (floaters) that he has trouble reading. I don't know if they're caused by medication, but my eye doctor says they are often stress-related. Once you get them, they don't go away, but they do become less noticeable with time. (I have them, too, and looking at the sky or a white background becomes especially troublesome.
