Floaters and itching

2017-07-24 07:27:09
I had minor retinal tear about 6 years ago. That was treated by laser surgery. I annually go for retinal check up. There are no problems with retina. But I still see floaters and now they have increased. I went for check up just 14 days ago, the retina was fine. And whenever I work on computer my eyes itch. I am using aquaray gel for eye dryness.
