Floaters

[EternalOptimist]

Anyone here ever suffer from floaters in their vision ? Mrs EO has had an eye test, because of peripheral dazzle and floaties.
They ruled out anything serious

I once dropped a floater; I'd been on some 'sustainable business' course when I was a permie and they only had veggie food. Very quickly, after returning to my usual carnivorous diet, I started producing sinkers again, and have always done so since.

For like since ever! Staring into bright lights is worse, or reading in direct sunlight

Seriously deffo nothing to worry about, get them all the time, kind of reassuringly really

If Mrs EO had enough wobbly warhead to worry about she would not have enough time to get the vapours over such trivia

PM me if you need suppport

Yeh, same thing. Year ago, suddenly had bright flashes of light every time I moved my eye plus floaters. Doc sent me straight to eye hospital - panic. They said it was minor problem and should clear up. All back to normal in a week or two.

How about phantoms? So perfectly formed they glide silently on round the S-bend and disappear out of sight. Unnerving when you stand up and have a look - for an instant you can't decide whether you imagined doing it, or think it's escaped and hiding behind the loo.

I'm not sure if I have floaters as they don't move independantly of the eye, they move with it.

They're probably more likely to be small scratches on the cornea. Oh the joys of getting old.

Very funny TAG on this thread

I haven't done one of those for a while, but perhaps it's because I tulip in Dutch bogs, where the turd falls onto a sort of 'inspection shelf' before being flushed into the S-bend. I've sworn that when we re-do the bathroom these bogs will be replaced with a design that's less scatological, but somehow the money keeps getting spent on wine instead.

I've had floaters in my eyes since I was in school. Nothing serious and I just ignore them.
Never had dazzling though.
