hey gabe, looks like we'll be helping each other out tonight.

I've been smoking weed fora bout 1 1/2 years too. The depth perception problem could be caused by the weed, since it does mess with it while you're high. Take a few days off, and cut down overall, see it anything changes.

The dots you're seeing in your vision, i've had that too when I was younger. But don't worry, it's your eyes not your brain! The receptors are just getting damaged from looking at screens too long. Computer, t.V., video games, movies, any sort of electronic screens will mess up your light and colour photoreceptors if you look at them too much. Take some screentime off for a week, no time at all, and it should clear up. If not (though unlikely) see a doctor. Btw, do you get itchy/sore/irritated eyes a lot? That would verify my case too.

Sorry gabe, I don't know whether or not it'll get better on its own, best to consult a doctor. I do know there's a mental disorder where people lose depth perception, but it's totally unrelated to weed. Could just be a coincidence that you're smoking weed and getting this, hard to say. But no research of anecdotal reports indicate weed can do this to you.
