Floaters are common. Unless accompanied with flashes of light or decrease in vision or sudden increase in number of floaters, you need not worry.
Please get a detailed retina examination by local ophthalmologist.

Floaters are very common ailment and indicates the jelly in your eye is liquifying especially if you hv high myopia, it may occur earlier.but you shd report it to a retina specialist only if they suddenly increase too much and are accompanied with flashes in eye which may indicate a retinal break.Otherwise floaters r to be simply ignored by looking up,down,left,right.
