I don't know the answer to your question, but I wanted to thank you for posting the question!. I have been seeing "spots" in my line of visions for years, and I didn't know what they were!. Even my friends that wear glasses or contacts had never heard of or experienced this!. I didn't know that it was a true condition called "floaters" until I just read your question!. It's good to know that I'm not the only person with this problem!. I'm kind of annoyed though, because I did a little research and I guess there's no cure for them!. Supposedly, they go away with time, but I've been having mine for years and they're now more frequent!. I'm going to make a doctor's appointment and ask if anything new is causing the frequent appearance of them, and if there is a possible cure!.
Thanks again, and good luck to both of us! :]Www@Answer-Health@Com

All floaters should be examined by a competent eye doctor!. They are easily seen!. Most are benign and called posterior vitreous detachments!. However, a small propotion of floaters can be caused by beginning retinal detachments, hemorrhage, etc!. Your doctor will tell you what you have and treat it , if necessary!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It depends on what it is that is causing it!. Sometimes they can see what is causing it and sometimes they can not!. It is a good idea to see your doctor becuase a lot of things can make floaters happen!. It might be something really simple!. Your doctor will dilate your eyes and look in the eye and see what is going on with the ophthalmoscope!. It won't hurt it will just look funky!. You will be fine! At your age it usually is nothing serious so relax!. Just make sure you tell the Doctor what it is that your seeing and when!. They will figure it out!Www@Answer-Health@Com
He/She won't be able to see them physically but it is common so they will know what you are talking about!.
I have been seeing them since I was about 8 due to my extreme nearsightedness!. They are usually not a problem but it CAN lead to retinal detachment, so it is important to get your eyes dilated EVERY year!.
I actually like seeing them, I see very odd shapes, it's fun!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Not that I know of!.!.!. I have been to eye dr for same thing and the best that they can do is tell you that you will get used to it AND that eventually it will disappear!. It is generally caused by something within the fluid in your eye floating through the vision part !.!.!. A nuisance!., but not much they can do about it!

If they look in the back of your eye they will, I just went a few days ago because of my eye getting all fuzzy and apparently it was because I had an "abnormally large" floater knocked loose!. Unfortunately, there is not much that can be done to help them!
Best of luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
