Do any of you get agitated when you see something move in your vision? Like your hair, a person's facial expression or dust?

Yes, definitely. Like, let me look at this thing in peace for crying out loud! XD It's especially bad when someone actually gets up and walks in front of what I'm focusing on, completely ruining it. D:

Yes. It's a distracting false alarm because things moving in my visual field normally stimulate my alertness.

I was sitting at the back of the bus today and somebody sat on the seat in front of me. I never realized just how close the seat was to the back seat. I felt like the back of their head was right in my face. :|

As soon as a seat became available further down the bus, I swiftly moved.
