I have great respect and gratitude for Dr Sebag and his research on the vitreous and floaters. This is much needed research. However I am curious about the type of floaters that younger patients have that are said to be much closer to the retina and also a lot smaller. They nevertheless appear large, highly mobile and thus exceptionally bothersome to the patient allegedly due to the extreme proximity to the retina and light scattering effects. When a doctor doesn't see any floaters that patient is often diagnosed with a mental problem if they are bothered by floaters. I'm excited by these objective measures, but do we know its limitations in quantifying floater severity for certain types of floaters, especially for younger patients? Thanks.

This is glorious, I been tryin to find out about "what does it mean when you see squiggly lines?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Fiyilliam Uncomplicated Formula - (just google it ) ? It is a great one of a kind guide for discovering how to stop your eye floaters minus the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my work buddy got great results with it.

By close proximity to the retina I was referring to the premacular bursa area. I have heard that it's not important that these floaters are not detectable by an outside observer because despite their tiny size the position in the eye greatly exaggerates the perception due to the optics of the eye. Comments? Thanks.

What about Yag Laser Vitreolysis instead … surely significant less invasive and therefore lower risk

I am seeing Dr. Johnson in Irvine, CA who uses a YAG laser to treat floaters. I had a PVD in both eyes. It's working for me. It may take several treatments, but it's a far safer procedure than the vitrectomy that the medical establishment offers, and then only when it's "really bad," a subjective assessment. My HMO (Kaiser Permanente) told me to "get used to it" and one of the ophthalmologists told me "to give them names and form a relationship with them." I am seeing Dr. Johnson next Monday for the third time. My improvement is 80% and I am hoping after Monday 90-95%%. Do not fall for all the scammers out there who are trying to sell you supplements. While supplements are not bad perse, they are not going to get rid of your floaters.

I did the Yag laser procedure and unfortunately they couldn’t get at my most problematic floater because it was too close to the lens! I’m now meeting with a retina specialist to explore a vitrectomy.

I had cataract surgery almost 10 months ago. After my cataract surgery, i now have floaters. It's not so much the black mosquitoes moving around my field of vision. In my case, I also have a bad cellophane type cloud that constantly moves over my field of vision. This is very distracting and affects my reading and focusing. I also get lots of glare when watching TV. My Dr says it's a dangerous procedure and that I could lose my vision. I am very concerned whether to address this issue or not. The left eye is the worst, but my right eye is also affected. What should I do?????
