  Well, in my opinion, there is nothing to do with depression, when someone suffers from visual snow. And according to some researches, chemical changes can just lead to visual snow. Generally speaking, visual snow is a transitory or persisting visual symptom where people see snow or television-like static in parts or the whole of their visual fields, especially against dark backgrounds. And because of that, it will just make your eyes uncomfortable. Also, some visual disturbances such as starbursts, increased afterimages, floaters, trails will just accompany with it.
