Eye floaters
I have seen eye doctor one month before with less noticed following transparent lines, shapes and some dots kind strange, now when I have aware of those things it is more visible in sunny and more bright conditions. When met doctor he said don't worry and also it won't disappear but day by day it seems more visible. I am worry to chances of retina detachment or other problems. Please advise

Hello
These are floaters
These appear due to condensation of collagen fibrils present in the vitreous cavity of eye
These are benign and don't need treatment
Only way to get rid of them is to avoid them
So you don't need to worry
I myself have this in my left eye for last 14 years

Get a proper dilated indirect ophthalmoscopy done preferably by a retina specialist.
If no breaks on examination then your doctor is absolutely right.
