Floaters problem

2018-04-20 04:18:25
I have floaters... Can I do eye exercise? Such as revolving clockwise, anticlockwise 10times. 2twice daily. Will it create more floaters? Or will it reduce. And I drink 1.5l of water maximum daily. Is this a reason of floaters? How many litre will i drink to get rid from floaters. Please advice.

Doing eye exercises and drinking water will not solve floaters. Floaters are generally innocuous. However a detailed retinal examination is required to rule out any retinal holes or tears which are associated with floaters.
Next Steps
Please consult a retina specialist
Health Tips
Go in for an emergency consultation if floaters increase or you see flashes of light

Floaters are usually nonpathological and you will have to learn to omit them. However please get your fundus examination done by an ophthalmologist first to rule out the possibility of retinal problem.
