Why do I see black and orange zig-zags when I look at a white surface?
HelloThereHuman
I don't know if this is normal but when I look at white surfaces like a vent or radiator then I see black and orange zig-zags. It can carry over to other surfaces after too.

Any complaint like this has to start with a complete medical eye exam by an Eye MD ophthalmologist. Ask for a macular OCT test.
