It happens to me throughout my day, all I need to do is look at the sky.

Yes, I too am able to induce and experience this when looking at the sky, or any bright light source. They look like tiny white fireflies flying around in random directions.

I've done some research on this in the past, but I haven't been able to find much. I have heard some accounts however that some people who come out of a deep hypnotic trance see them for about 2-5 seconds. What this means, I have no idea.

I was walking through the house (towards a big bright window) bent down to pick up something off the floor, stayed down about 10 secs., and when I came up (directly in front of the window) About a gazillion of those little light thingies came up in front of my eyes, almost preventing me from seeing. (imagine so many sparklies you can't hardly see). They quickly dissipated leaving the usual amount.
To me this shows this is a physical characteristic of the eye. What it is specifically, IDK.

I agree that it has something to do with the physical characteristic of the eyes. Something to do with the amount of blood that flows to the eyes perhaps.
