Eye Floaters and Flickering<\/h1>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Drifting specks and threads are shadows cast by the vitreous gel, and most people develop them with age. A sudden shower of new floaters, or flashes of light, should be examined the same day.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

What are eye floaters?<\/h2>

Floaters are small shapes \u2013 dots, threads or cobwebs \u2013 that drift across your field of vision, most noticeable against a bright background. Flickering or flashes of light can sometimes accompany them.<\/p>

Most floaters are a normal part of the eye's ageing and are harmless. However, a sudden increase in floaters or new flashes of light should always be assessed promptly.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
