Allergic Infection and Eye Floaters
Hello sir,
For past 4-5 days i am seeing small black thread like floaters in my vision. There are clearly visible in sunlight when i look at sky and not inside room.
I had severe allergic infection for a week prior to that and then i developed these floaters.
Could you please help me if both are correlated or there could something serious behind these?
Hi
As you are seeing single thread floater , a proper eye examination is needed . One needs to rule out any inflammation in the eye
Do you wear glasses , if yes myopia causes degeneration of vitreous ( a jelly infront of retina) . It may be result if that
But many a times it is due to physiological entopic phenomenon. In that cases you need not worry about it
So get a proper eye examination done first
Next Steps
Please visit an ophthalmologist or consult in detail to formulate a diagnosis
