Floaters problem

2020-10-08 06:58:32
Can taking boiling water steam on face everyday (to cure common cold) cause increase in eye floaters? Can it cause any type of eye injury as there is less distance between very hot water and eye ?

Hello Sir, hot water steam will never cause any increase in floaters. Better to wear some protective goggles as we can not expose eyes to extreme temperatures be it hot or cold.
