Eye Floaters

Eye floaters - Symptoms and causes - Mayo Clinic

Had my first real experience a week ago. Was having lunch when this large snake-like 'thread' passed over my sight line. I of course went to rub my eye, but to no avail. Asked my wife what she could see? Nothing.

Over the next couple hours the snake broke up into many smaller pieces and reminded me of a kaleidoscope. By nightfall it was down to about 20 or 30 pieces and by morning it was 4 or 5.

Eye Dr. explained it to me and gave me a sense of relief. All else is healthy in my eyes. She also correctly predicted that one would center itself in my sightline and be rather annoying until I gave up and simply lived with it.

Expected relief date? 1-2 years.

Anyone else?

As young boys we were warned that a certain habit caused blindness, perhaps you did not heed those warnings?
