Henry is correct, they are called floaters.  Some people have them all them time, others have them only when they cough or sneeze, some people never experience them.  I would have your eyes checked to be safe, make sure that is a natural occurrance and not something else going on.

Various possibilities (among others):\n\n1) Could be psychological\n2) Could be allergic \n3) There may really be something in your eye - not always can you see foreign objects lodged in the eye\n4) You might have touched your eye with a dirty and/or sweaty figure or something\n5) It maybe irritation/complications due to contact lens use\n6) It maybe the onset of a Herpes Virus infection\n7) It maybe the onset of a case of conjunctivitis\n8) You maybe needing glasses and/or eye treatment\n\nBottom line:\n\nTry washing/rinsing your eyes with clean water for sometime, but only after having washed and rinsed your hands thoroughly first.  Then make sure you dry your eyes with a fresh clean towel.    If the sensation continues, seek medical care (i.e. go for an Eye Checkup/Exam) – never self medicate.

Do you mean when your on meth and you feel like you have bugs crawling on you?  If you are no. It is a side affect of the drug, or bad meth. People have been know to dig holes in there skin trying to get the bugs.

It sounds as if you may be experiencing floaters.  This is something that happens more frequently as people age.  It is actually gel or cells floating in the vitreous fluid (jelly like material within the eyeball) in your eye.  AS we age the vitrous fulid in our eyes thickens and this can lead to floaters.  You are actually seeing the shadows of the material off the retina. Floaters move with your eye as you move it because they are located within the eye itself.  Many times you can see floaters when you are looking at a light colored wall or background.  Floaters can be caused if you have experienced a blow to the head or can also be caused by a retinal detachment.  You should see an opthalmologist to rule this out.  If there is a sudden onset of the floaters it could be indicative of larger problems such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal hemmorhages or carotid artery disease.  If you are nearsighted, have had cataract or YAG surgery or experienced some inflammation or swelling within the eye, it could be a vitreous detachment.\nIt is impossible to diagnose this over the internet so you really should seek the attention of an opthalmologist for a true diagnosis of what you are experiencing.

It could be a tic. Have you ever seen anyone and you were talking to them and their eye started twitching? Thats a tic, if it doesn't stop I suggest you go to the hospital. It isn't anything  fatal, just annoying and I am sure they could give you something to take care of it. It could just be nerves as well.

Ask yourself this, "why would I stare at something all the time?"

Creepy.  I've seen lines in the sky, moving slowly, coming together and moving apart over and over.  That was creepy too!  But no I've never seen any triangles.  http://www.nuforc.org/  That's a site where regular people report their ufo sitings.  Pretty interesting, you should check it out!

Yep, we all do. First, there are little translucent cellular fragments floating around that look like some sort of bacteria under a microscope, and then there are the patterns or 'light shows' that appear with closed eyed, especially when you press on them a little.  There's a term for it... Ahgh! I can't remember. They are like phototronics, no phototechnics? or something? Ask your biology teacher. But everyone can see them. Maybe even blind people? Who knows. But it is definately a function of your eyes componants.

I believe the actual terminology for this is called "persistance of vision"\n\nIn loose terms, it's very much like when you stare at the black dot on the green apple for 15 seconds, then close your eyes, then with your eyes closed you see a white spot and a red apple.\n\nsee : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistence_of_vision

It sounds like floaters.  If it is, then you have nothing to worry about.  Usually you'll notice them if you are looking at a white board or the sky.  Some people have lots, some people have a few, and some people never notice them.\n\nIf you're interested, floaters are caused from protein clumps in the jelly ("vitreous" in fancy talk) on the inside of your eye.  As you move your eyes, they slosh around and cast a shadow on your retina, which is what you can see.  If you hold your eyes really still, you'll notice they slow down and eventually disappear.\n\nAnother thing that is a possibility are "ocular migraines."  I would recommend that you get your eyes checked by your family eye doctor just to be on the safe side.

You could be having spasm of the muscles around the eye. You first need to diagnose the cause and treat it if necessary. If there is nothing, try botox

Basically it spreads from contact.  Most of the time from touching something someone who had this touched and then touching your own eye.

I not sure, but, sometimes I play with these fuzzy little spiders as they seem to enjoy it. I poke at them with my finger and they run and then jump on my finger and look around as if they playing. As I look at them they seem to take on a personality that seems to have a face, including a nose. ;-)

The places on your eyes sound like sties. They are basically pimples that form on your eyelids or at your lashline.They can form because of stress,the same as other pimples, so perhaps you have a virus of some sort that is also causing the weakness. ASK YOUR DOCTOR!!! With diabetes it could be anything,none of which you need to play around with. Try putting a washrag soaked in hot water (as hot as you can stand it next to your eye)at your eye. Let it stay as long as it's hot...this will help draw the sties and make them come to a head sooner. Good Luck..I hope all is well with you!!

Sounds like "floaters", I think they are tiny scratches on your retina.

Shure you should see an eye doctor!!i dont think it is connected with that reddish spot above your eyelid!!you may have problems with the lacrimal system,for example-obstruction of the lacrimal canalliculus!!
