Audible noise when moving my eyes

299 answers - active on Feb 21st 2022
This doesn't happen always, but between 5-10 times a week I will hear (or appear to hear) a noise which vaguely sounds like someone quickly ripping a piece of paper or cloth when I move my eyes from one point to another (left to right, up to down, etc). I guess I'm just trying to figure out is this really happening, or am I suffering from some type of auditory hallucination? There doesn't seem to be any single set of circumstances it occurs in. Has anyone heard of anything like this?

Holy cow this hats the exact sound I get when I wake up and move my eyes! It sounds exactly like a light saber! Thanks for giving me something to compare it to! I don’t know what it is though
Yes, PWRX! The sound is very similar to light saber sound. It happens to me when I first wake up in the morning (usually having wine the night before), and I hear it when I blink my eyes...like it's my eyes dilating that causes it. It goes away after a few minutes. It might be SCDS, which covers a lot of symptoms. Do you have tinnitus?
Do you take any SSRIs, BP meds, have tinnitus, or any other medical issues?

Glad I found this site. I've started experiencing this about 3 week ago. It happens only when I wake up with tired, dry eyes. Usually due to lack of sleep. And only when I quickly move my eyes left or right. Once I wash my face, it goes away. So something to do with dry eyes and just waking up. The sound is like a sandpaper. But the other descriptions from others here also work.
