I have a lot of floaters in my eyes, is there a way to get rid of them?
Mar 6, 2013

Dr. Paul Yazbek Otolaryngology (ENT)
Floaters may be a serious condition, retinal detachment, so i recommend that you see an eye doctor soon!

Dr. Pierre Mardelli Ophthalmology
Immediate medical attention is especially important if the floaters are accompanied by flashes of light or a loss of side vision. If you have these symptoms, see an ophthalmologist right away. Without immediate treatment, you can have permanent vision loss. These symptoms may be caused by:

Retinal detachment
Retinal tear
Bleeding within the eye
