I am seeing a dark coloured floater in my right eye. This came just last week. What could be the reason? What is the treatment?

Most floaters are harmless. If it is a large floater which has persisted it is safer to see an eye surgeon who will dilate your pupil and check your retina to rule out potentially harmful conditions. Maskatieyeclinic opposite Charni road station east, Mumbai
