I have a lot of these because I’ve had numerous eye surgeries and they’re ultimately just gunk in the vitreous fluid of the eye. I wish there was a way that they could drain, filter, and replace your vitreous fluid when it gets like mine. Like an eyeball oil change. There’s not though, as far as I know.
A tip: if you suddenly see a ton more of these get it checked out asap, especially if you are very near sighted
Everytime I see this warning, I become hyper aware of every single one and it freaks me out.
If it makes you feel any better you’ll know when it happens, they increase by a lot. If they increase noticeably you should get it checked out but if it increases so substantially that you’re like man what the hell is going on then you need emergency care, basically, but also you can’t really miss it?
There actually is. I have looked into it before because I have a lot of floaters, but have never had surgery. The risk and downtime with the surgery is pretty high, so it's usually not recommended.
Someone in my family had a double retinal detachment and the surgeon asked if he wanted his floaters removed while they were in there putting things back together. It's apparently possible because he has no more floaters.
This but for tinnitus too please
I know someone who got a vitrectomy for his eye floaters, and I've been considering doing the same when I can afford it
