Could This Be A Problem?!


Question: I just asked another question and everyone told me they were floaters in my eyes. I'm 17 and have had these for some years now, but in the last 4 years or so my vision has deteriorated to the point that I had excellent eye sight but I now need glasses and my vision is blurry even without glasses at just a short distance. I'm not blind or anything, I just need glasses, but I wasn't sure if maybe the floaters and my decrease in vision are connected?

it could be that you eyeball has grown longer, becoming myopic, thus the need for glasses. and because your eyeball has grown, your retina was pulled away from the optic nerve head and left a cresent. the floaters might be pigment from the cresent. go have your eyes checked if you're so worried

Every person has floaters. In some people there are more floaters than others but that doesn't affect your vision. Heredity affects your vision more than anything.

i have that same problem

usually myopic people experience more floaters then people with emmotropic or 20/20 vision

its nothing to really worry about, get it checked out, if they look into your eye and see its okay then dont worry about it
