What Causes Floating Debris In The Field Of Vision?

I have floating debris in my field of vision in one eye only. the debris resembles a cobweb floating around. this began after a bout with shingles on the forehead and eyelid a few months ago. This is getting to be very distracting.should I be very concerned?

Yes. Floaters are always pathologic. Please see an ophthalmologist tomorrow itself. Its unlikely tone related to the shingles you had but it could be another pathology. Take care.
