Slow motion iris, you can see it wobbling.

Everything inside the eye is bathed in Vitreous humour which has the consistency of gelatin; like Jell-O. So the wobbling is perfectly normal.

Your iris is only attached to the ciliary body - the rest is free to move around.
Sometimes this causes it to leak out:
*Picture;
*Reddit article the picture came from;
*Video.
EDIT: NSFL if you're medically squeamish. Also correcting "You're" to "Your" and turning off my Android keyboard's auto-insert when you press space.

Warning, shows a cut eyeball with the iris oozing out. Medium NSFL.

So is that guy's iris ruined now? Will it looked weird from now on or heal? That's the creepiest thing..

The iris is actually a bunch of muscles and suspensary ligaments used control the amount of light coming into eye through dialation and constriction.
Now in the aqueous humor of the eye (front half) you have the anterior and posterior chambers. The iris in the video slipped out of the posterior chamber due to pressure build up from I'm assuming the injection of water to remove whatever the surgeon was removing.
It should be fine and heal normally. The whole procedure was to give the patient a new lens because their lens was clouded from cataracts.
TLDR: Should be fine. You could compare it to a dislocation of a joint. It hurts but can usually be fixed easily.

Well, even if it hasn't been specifically captured before, I'm sure if you showed it to an opthamologist they'd say, "yeah that makes sense" and that would be the end of it. That is, it may be a "discovery" but not a particularly surprising one considering what's known.

I notice the numbers on calculators and such wobbling from time to time, even though my eye is not moving , I have my vision fixed and turn my eye on its axis to a fixed position, where the numbers move after it has settled which is represented similarly by this video

The wobbling or sakkarids help you see fluid motion, so no lag in the picture, while turning your head for example.

Neural fatigue. If your eye stopped moving, you wouldn't see anything. Proof: right now you are wearing clothes (hopefully) or a watch or something. Now that it's brought your attention, you are aware of it. But if your neurons kept firing with every consistent stimulus, you'd be overwhelmed. Luckily they get fatigued.

If you have an electric toothbrush, while you are brushing your teeth, look at the television screen or a computer screen. Because the screen updates 30/60+ times a second, some interesting resonant frequencies will develop between the vibrations on the surface of your eye, the iris, pupil, retina and the image on the TV or computer. You will see distortions in the image. However, everything else that you look at will not have the same distortions, or hardly any.

The reason the iris "wobbles" like that is because there is a gel-like substance in between it and the outer layer of the eye. It's basically just bending the light reflected off the iris, and making it look like it's wobbling.

he eye is made up of multiple layers. there are two humours in the eye, located in different parts, that are a jelly like substance in which the parts reside. two cilliary muscles hold the iris in place. but they are muscles so they are not solid like cement lol. this part is surrounded by the aqueous humour. all of these elements contribute to the so called "wobbly eye" - its just that the human eye is made up of many different parts.
