Did you ever figure it out, bring it up to a doctor, or anything else that would help you develop some insight on it?
Yes, I have brought it up to medical professionals before. I told a psychiatrist in 2009 but he didn't know what I was talking about and I didn't use the term visual snow back then as I didn't know that myself, at that time.
I brought it up more recently to a neurologist who I see for an unrelated neurological disorder and he seemed to believe me and put that I have it on one of my hospital letters.
However, "visual snow syndrome" is not currently a diagnosis on the NHS (National Health Service) in the UK, it is more so in the realms of research at the moment, rather than being widely recognized within healthcare.
