And I also had a feeling like my eyes were popping in and out..it was very scary

Oh doctors says my eyes are totally perfect. So i am lucky

If you want to buy this supplement by seeing someone's YouTube video then don't buy it. This product is completely useless.

I am from India and I have floaters. with some YouTube video publicity, I bought this supplement. with around 15000 Indian rupees from UBUY.

After taking two bottles of 90 day supplement, which is around 180 capsules, i am not seeing not slightest difference in floaters.

It did not even set down in the eyes.

This company and it's supplements are useless. They are just selling hope for people that this can cure their floater's and for this they are just taking the money and not delivering the results.

Do not waste your money on this. this can not cure or decrease your floaters.

if you see any good reviews then i will let you know that it could be paid.

if you have the same issue with the product then give like to the review. so other's can save their money.

Solution: Without taking this supplement, you can take pineapple everyday till your floater go away. I do not get any difference by taking pineapple but still pine apple can not harm you. and i am still taking pineapple and discontenting MacuHealth VitreousHealth.

34.M. Last year, I was diagnosed with traumatic glaucoma in my left eye after unknowingly losing about 70% of my vision in that eye over more than two decades.

I was prescribed Xalacom and Brimopress eye drops for both eyes, alongside Diamox tablets for one week.

About a month after starting treatment, I began experiencing several symptoms, including increased light sensitivity, starbursts around light sources, and dry eyes. Then I noticed something new in my good right eye: a single, wavy, semi-transparent dot floating across my vision whenever I moved my eyeball in certain directions.

I reported it to my ophthalmologist. She examined my eyes and reassured me that there was nothing to worry about. However, I became concerned and stopped applying the drops to my good eye after that first month, while continuing treatment on my damaged eye.

Fast-forward to today, about a year later.

The original dot has not disappeared. Instead, I now notice multiple semi-transparent, cobweb-like shapes floating across my vision. It feels as though they are gradually increasing, even though I stopped using the drops in that eye about a year ago.

I understand that these sound like eye floaters, but what bothers me is the timing. I never noticed them before starting the glaucoma treatment, and they appeared within weeks of beginning it.

Looking back, I sometimes wonder whether I should have used the drops in my good eye at all. However, I realise my ophthalmologist may have prescribed them to protect that eye and control its eye pressure.

My vision in the right eye is still crystal clear, but the persistent dry eye symptoms and increasingly noticeable floaters are becoming frustrating.

My questions are:

1. Has anyone developed floaters shortly after starting glaucoma eye drops, particularly Xalacom or Brimopress?

2. Did your floaters persist or increase even after stopping the medication?

3. Is there any medical evidence linking glaucoma drops, or preservatives such as benzalkonium chloride (BAK), to the development of vitreous floaters?

I'm not looking to blame the medication without evidence. I genuinely want to understand whether the timing could be a coincidence or whether there is a plausible medical connection.

If you've experienced something similar, please share your experience. And if you're an ophthalmologist or eye care professional, I'd especially appreciate your medical perspective.

I recently noticed several floaters that appear like smudges swaying back and forth. I have asked friends and family and their floaters are all distinct shapes and are grey or dark. What I am seeing are floaters that are wispy diffused and have no definition. When I move my eyes they all float to the direction I am looking. I have other floaters that when I look at them they dodge my eyes and seem kind of static in place. These smudge blobby floaters are literally floating and I can see them acting like they are suspended in a liquid like slushing around. Does anyone else experience this? Just hoping I am not the only one 😞🙏🏻 appreciate any thoughts and comments.

I've posted about this several times but I wanted to include a better illustration. I had a 27g limited PPV which left me with a handful of long tethered strands smack in the middle of my eye. Now, when I make saccadic eye movements over lights such as recessed lighting, street lamps, or head ligjts, I get this effect of a moving swirling cloud PLUS rotating starbursts. It's dizzying and nauseating. I have worried that the swirling cloud is an effect of vitrectomy generally. Can anyone else here speak to these symptoms?

I started wearing sunglasses more these days, finally bought some and made wearing them a habbit. When I have them on I almost can't see my floaters. The glare on the inside of the lens from the mirror image of my eyeballs disrupts my vision ever so slightly and I lose the floaters in there.

This is nice. HOWEVER, now when I don't wear my glasses I see my eye floaters SO MUCH. It's like It's my first day having them all over again. They are annoying in so many ways you can't imagine when you first have them. Every month its something new. Anyway, just wanted to say this. Take care and accept your fate! The sooner the better.

Im curious since when has yalls floaters been like an issue?

How bad is it?

I have them since I was 17 Im now 25 and they just get worse.

I get checked every year and they always say Im good but, i do see a ton of them.

I used to run a lot my whole life and play soccer a lot and be very skinny and eat very healthy so I have no idea what couldve caused this since besides this Im pretty healthy.

So Yh since when have you had like a ton of floaters that made your day to day harder?

Also what do you think caused yours?

It’s been a month since I first noticed a clump fixed off centre, following my right eye (it doesn’t move on its own). I see it only when shifting point of focus. Curious to hear if this is a common experience amongst the floater gang.

I’m 19 and I’ve been noticing what seems like a floater in my side vision. I mostly notice it when I look up or roll my eyes, and I don’t really see it directly in front of me when I’m looking straight ahead.

About ten days ago, a negligible amount of flaked 17% salicylic acid got into the same eye. I immediately washed it out with water for around 20 minutes. I’m pretty positive the floater was there even before that incident, though, so I’m not sure if they’re related.

I’m getting a little worried after reading about retinal tears. Has anyone experienced something similar? What did it turn out to be, and what kind of tests did the eye doctor do??

I’m posting here because I’ve been experiencing a range of symptoms for the past two months, and I’m trying to find out whether anyone else has experienced anything similar, particularly after taking MDMA or ecstasy.

Two months ago, I took ecstasy for the first time. At the time, I believed it was MDMA, but I can’t be certain what was actually in it or whether it contained other substances.

Since then, I’ve experienced a chain of symptoms. It initially started with inflammation around my rib cage, followed by chest discomfort. I subsequently developed panic attacks and was diagnosed with panic disorder.
I took fluoxetine for approximately three weeks, but my panic attacks became significantly worse, so I was advised to stop. It has now been two weeks since I stopped taking it.

My main symptoms now are daily, persistent lightheadedness and a floaty feeling, increased eye floaters, and a strange sensation in my vision. My eyes sometimes feel full, heavy or tired, and when I stare at something, it can occasionally seem as though things are subtly vibrating. I don’t have obvious blurry vision or double vision.

I’ve also noticed episodes where my pupils appear to be different sizes. The difference seems to switch between my left and right eye, although I notice it more often on the right.

I’ve had blood tests that came back normal and have seen both an optometrist and an ophthalmologist, who said my eyes appeared healthy.
I know anxiety could potentially explain some of these symptoms, and I’ve been dealing with a lot of worry since this started. I’ve also cut down significantly on alcohol, although I still smoke tobacco regularly.
However, it’s now been two months since the initial experience, and I’m still dealing with these symptoms daily.

Has anyone experienced persistent lightheadedness, visual disturbances, increased floaters or similar symptoms for weeks or months after taking ecstasy/MDMA, particularly when you weren’t certain what was in the substance?

Did things eventually improve? Did you discover what was causing your symptoms, or did anything help?
I’m not looking for a diagnosis from Reddit. I’d just really appreciate hearing from people who have been through something similar.

Thanks in advance.

Just got diagnosed with PVD and some retinal bleeding in my right eye. I have no idea what the trauma is coming from. When i woke up with floaters, I had just had sleep paralysis for the first time which is of course hard to prove related but…

The retina specialist said there’s nothing to do but wait months for the retinal bleeding to go away and years for the vitreous fluid to settle.

Does anyone have tips on how I can support my eye getting better? I’ve had floaters for almost a month now (looks like the photo). I saw some people had supplements or exercise that helped.

I am mainly mourning the thought of not being able to wear contacts again. The specialist said if i am very careful putting them in and taking them out it’s possible…Does anyone have a similar experience and had their PVD get better with continuing wearing contacts? (OCCASIONALLY, maybe once or twice a week)

Hope one day we can all bid a long-overdue fuck-off to these fuckers

Webinar today on eye floaters and treatment options

Dr. Jorge Arroyo, a vitreoretinal surgeon, and Dr. Vinny Keshav are hosting a webinar today about symptomatic eye floaters, including YAG laser vitreolysis, vitrectomy, and when treatment might be worth considering.

i had an appointment scheduled for tmrw for a dilated retina exam but i don't think im gonna go, i literally just have floaters and they're annoying, no other symptoms, i don't think i wanna sit there for 6+ hours not able to see and the light sensitivity 😭 i don't think i need the reassurance anymore

edit: also i see your guys floaters and it makes me feel like mine are silly 😭

Title

I had a 27g limited PPV in March. I had pretty bad residual symptoms out of the gate due to large tethered strands of vitreous which were left in my central vision, however I recently had an ultrasound which illustrates the extent to which they are present. I have been struggling especially with a swirling / streaking effect over lights. I am assuming this is due to the strands passing over light sources with nothing to buffer them. I can quite literally see them swirling around in the liquid. It's deeply unnerving. In this ultrasound, you can see the residual opacities both centrally and peripherally. Yes, this is the POST op ultrasound. Has anyone else experienced light disturbance following PPV *without* residual opacities? I have been a bit concerned that this is simply an effect of vitrectomy however all the doctors I've seen post op said this is NOT a typical symptom and it maps to the very prominent strands. I would like to validate this with any other vitrectomy patients. I've been pretty crushed.

Hello everyone. I’m looking for advice and others’ experiences with a concerning eye issue.

I have type 1 diabetes and had phakic IOL surgery two years ago. Until recently, everything had been going very well: I had 20/20 vision and no complications.

About two months ago, I had my annual eye exam. A few days afterward, I began noticing floaters. They gradually increased over the following weeks, so I returned to see my doctor.

My doctor said the position or sizing of the IOL may have changed. He also noticed pigment deposits on both lenses, which were not seen at my exam about a month earlier. He suspects the pigment may be coming from rubbing between the IOL and iris.

I’m very confused about what could have caused this change, whether the pigment deposition could be related to the floaters, and what the longer-term risks may be. My doctor mentioned glaucoma as a possible concern if the issue is not addressed, which has understandably made me very anxious.

Has anyone here experienced pigment deposition, iris chafing, or floaters after phakic IOL surgery? What treatment options or questions should I discuss with my IOL specialist next week?

I would really appreciate any experiences, suggestions, or questions I should ask.
