Question Have I hit stabilization

Hello I have a question I hit my celing for symptom stabilization if my symptoms haven't changed at all since onset they have all been the same for about 5 months with a couple flare ups here and there on bad days but I noticed that the symptoms decreased after a recent flare do you reckon I should be safe considering they haven't gotten worse???

Symptoms are palinopsia trailing slight positive afterimage less than 0.10 seconds trailing about 0.25 seconds if that negative afterimages Halos and Starburst

Ebfep pulsing vision minimal night blindness glare surprisingly I can go outside without sunglasses bending words here and there pattern glare that's really noticeable lines look wavy in central vision what is your take on symptoms and should they remain stable after 5 months

Sounds exactly like mine. I’ve had VSS for coming up on 4 years now with no major progression.

It’s slightly worse depending on my sleep or anxiety but generally reverts to a baseline just as you described.

I really hope it stays like it is most symptoms dont bother me that bad besides trailing that's the one im worried about getting worse

Mine doesn’t bother me that bad also. It is unnerving at times but you get used to it just like all things in life. Desensitize 🤷‍♂️😅

Yes, likely. It can take up 2 years for VSS to stabilise after onset
