Answers:
The vitreous gel in the main chamber of the eye being less than even causes floaters!. It is more common in shortsighted people, and tends to occur anyway as a normal consequence of increasing age!.

Any sudden fresh crop of floatesr needs to be checked out, because while 98% of cases of new floaters are harmless, 2% are an early indicator of a retinal detachment!.

No, there is no useful treatment for normal floaters (I'm not sure why you think there must be a way!.!.!.)
With very severe floaters, such as can result from a haemorrhage into the vitreous, a vitrectomy can be performed, removing the gel in part or competely, but since this has the ability to *produce* floaters as a side effect, and also carries the potential for retinal detachment and macular oedema as rare but possible adverse reactions, it's far from being a cure for normal floaters!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
