Suggest Treatment For Eye Floaters In The Line Of Vision
I ve recently been having a situation with my eyes.....particularly the right one. There is a floater for lack of a better word, that flashes off and on and makes it hard to read. Very distracting. Seems to come for no particular reason and lasts about 5 minutes or so. Any ideas??
hi..it is very common condition. there is a gel like substance called VITROUS FLUID in the eye. shrinkage of it causing shadowy tread like black in color floaters in the field of vision. it mostly occur when we see towards BRIGHT LIGHT , SKY ..etc for long.. if such floaters are not causing loss of vision then dont worry. if it causes vision loss plzz take ophthalmologist opinion for retinal detachment.
