Floaters increases
I have floaters on my both eye for one year. I went to a retina specialist and he said it's ok, and prescribe me a soft drop to use. My problem now is that few days back when I look into the sky and count the floaters i found 2-3new lines in my vision. After that i used to count daily and now I see 6-7new lines in my vision. I am very puzzled now what will i do now. If this increase continues... Will i be blind ??? Please suggest and help.

Floaters are usually nonpathological and you will have to learn to omit them. Since you have consulted a retina specialist and your retina is ok then you need not to worry. Get at least annual check up.
