Welcome to the Visual Snow (VS) Worldwide Project
The Visual Snow Initiative’s Visual Snow (VS) Worldwide Project showcases images of individuals and places from across the globe, revealing the diverse impact of Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS).
By illustrating primary symptoms such as Visual Snow (VS) and palinopsia, this project emphasizes the contrast between the experiences of those affected and those who are not, helping raise global awareness and increase recognition of VSS.
Your World VS Our World
Across the world, individuals with VSS are often misdiagnosed or misunderstood, particularly in regions with limited awareness.
The images presented in this project showcase the perceptual differences between those with and without VSS, aiming to correct misconceptions and promote understanding of the condition.
