what are “floaters” in the eyes and what can be done about them?”
Floaters are deposits of various size, shape, consistency, refractive index, and motility within the eye‘s normally transparent vitreous humour.[1] They may be of embryonic origin or acquired due to degenerative changes of the vitreous humour or retina.[1] The perception of floaters is known as myodesopsia, or less commonly as myiodeopsia, myiodesopsia, or myodeopsia.
