Floaters in the eye

2019-08-31 09:18:47
I have been seeing a lot of floaters in the eyes since last 2-3 weeks. I have even taken omega -3 tablets. The eye check up also didn't reveal any thing abnormal. Mostly they occur while seeing the sky and white background.

Hello Floaters are benign and dont need treatment. Only way to get rid of them is to avoid them. I suppose your retina is already examined and ia normal so there is nothing to worry. I myself have floaters in my left eye for last 14 years.
