10th grade playing ultimate frizbee (SP?) of all things. I went to block someone from throwing the frizbee and I got hit just under the ridge of my right eyebrow at the apex of his throw. I was knocked unconscious for a good 10 minutes. When I came to, I couldn't focus for shit with my right eye. I went to the ophthalmologist and he said the hit was hard enough to cause an astigmatism in my right eye. Since then I've had problems with migraines.

but don't get all worked up, this is the worse case scenario
They're not individual floaters it's more like a web of them and they're enough to completely obscure my vision to where I can't see shit in front of me. I can't recall seeing "stars" or flashes of light but, I can't say that I was looking for them either. Usually the floaters are combined with the gnarliest head pain and it's hard to focus on anything but.
