Eye floaters
Alternative names:
specks in the eye
Information:
Question:
What are the floating specks you sometimes see in front of your eyes?
Answer:
To some people these "floaters" look like spots; to others, they look like tiny threads. They are not on your eyes but in them. These floaters are bits of cellular debris that come and go without treatment. They are nothing to worry about unless you notice a sudden increase in them or you see them along with flashes of light. If this occurs, call your eye doctor. If you have other vision disturbances see vision abnormalities.
