I began to develop "eye floaters" several years ago. I visited an Ophthalmologist who said they may be a nuisance but are not harmful in my case. They are very distracting during the day, however Obviously not so much at night. Dr. Google mentions a couple of procedures:
Vitrectomy: A surgery that removes and replaces the vitreous through a small incision. You should be aware that this surgery is not foolproof. Sometimes the surgery will get rid of all the floaters, but new floaters can still develop.
Vitreolysis: For this treatment option, a doctor will use a special laser to reduce or remove the particles in the vitreous that cause floaters.
Has anyone experienced these procedures? How are you handling "floaters" if you have them? I notice them more at times than others but they never go away.
