Partial pressure of oxygen of 1.6 will cause toxicity. If using standard air (roughly 20% O2) this equates to a pressure of 8 bar which is present at 70m.
In terms of the percentage of O2 which causes toxicity, it depends on the depth but a partial pressure of 1.6 bar is the toxicity threshold

How does volvox impact on humans?
When humans enter the volvox habitat in order to protects its spawn it releases reproductive material into the air which humans/animals inhale traveling to the lungs it begins to grow in the lungs using Co2 which is inhailed with the oxygen they then turn it into oxygen which causes Oxygen toxicity. There for if untreated leads to a painful death by over expansion of the lungs.

What causes pulmonary oxygen toxicity?
Pulmonary oxygen toxicity is caused by divers exposing themselves to elevated partial pressures of oxygen for long periods of time, and is primarily a concern for technical divers who decompress on oxygen. Pulmonary oxygen toxicity causes a burning sensation in the trachea, coughing, shortness of breath, and eventually lung failure.
Oxygen toxicity can cause?
Pulmonary Oxygen Toxicity (PO) and Central Nervous System Toxicity (CNS)
What is the toxicity of Oxygen?
Oxygen is very reactive and causes things to oxidize. This includes the genetic material of your cells which is one of the reasons why people get old.
What are Sign and symptoms of oxygen toxicity?
Abnormally slow breathing is a symptom of oxygen toxicity
How do cells resist oxygen toxicity?
Cells resist oxygen toxicity because of the semi permeable membrane. This controls the amount of molecules and what molecules enter the cell.
Side effect of hyperbaric chamber?
Oxygen toxicity.
Signs and symptoms of oxygen toxicity?
The signs and symptoms for oxygen toxicity include changes in vision, nausea, twitching, and dizziness. More serious symptoms can include seizures and possible death.
Flickering Eyes Oxygen Toxcicty?
Oxygen toxicity can cause seizures and spasms. That implies to me that flickering eyes may be a symptom of O2 toxicity, but not a common or likely one. While possible, I'd personally look elsewhere for the cause.
