Hi there my name is Daniel and I'm not a Doctor just a plain old 11 year old kid who has tons of floaters as well as you may have. Now the bad news is that you can NOT get rid of floaters your self however one thing Please Do NOT have surgery these are your eyes were talking about not a games console etc. I woke up today and more floaters appeared and I got extremely upset and the best things are to do to decrease your floaters are quite simple:
1. Drink Plenty of Water not tap water mineral water only!
2. Do a lot of exercise about 80 minutes a day!
3. Don't go near junk foods or to much meat. Eat tons of vegetables this is a extremely important rule!
4. One of the most important step and the hardest... ignore them. There not worth it!
5. Drink a glass of red wine every 2 nights however know your limits and if you are young like me do not drink any alcohol!
6. If it gets any worse or you experience flashes of light please get medical attention straight away! And also visithttp://www.aboutfloaters.com/cure.htm
and do not ever get surgery because firstly it can cost $5,000 or much more. Secondly it is very risky because you could easily get blind from it.
7. Forget them and live a good life because ''the longer you had them the less you think about them and see them!''
Thank you and I hope this helped and remember your exercise and veggies! :D
No, you cannot get rid of them. I have them and my doctor says they do no damage, they are just very annoying.

That said, eye doctors can remove them, but they only attempt to do so in extreme cases, since there are risks. They may use a laser to bust up the particles or drain the vitreous humor.
If you have a significant increase in floaters please see a doctor right away. People with high level prescriptions are prone to this symptom which is an early indication of a more serious problem.
Eye floaters are types and some of them are treatable with medications and other are treated by surgical operation. Physiological type, which is due to normal liquefaction of vitreous body has no treatment. With time your brain will adapt these floaters and will ignore them. It needs around 4-8 months for your brain to adapt their presence.
By floaters, do you mean visual floaters? Or toilet floaters?
Toilet floaters are caused by a high fat content. Lower the fat intake of your diet.
Visual floaters, I can't help with. See your eye doctor.
In ayurveda, there are successful treatment methods for eye floaters. Before starting treatment, a detailed checkup is necessary. It is to rule out any other diseases such as retinal edema, retinal tear, inflammations, etc. If so, it should be controlled first. After that, treatment for floaters is very easy.
Train them and feed them regularly. Eye floaters feed on tears and blinking will train them to be great warriors in the battle against blindness. Good luck raising your young ones!
At present, there is no cure or treatment for floaters.

No. That would not be a typical reaction. Viagra is in no way connected to eye floaters. There can be serious side effects causing vision loss, but not floaters.
No - astigmatism only has to do with the shape of your eye. Floaters are a natural part of aging due to the changes in the jelly-like vitreous in the back of your eye. If you see many floaters, or floaters with flashes of light, make an appointment to see an eye doctor.
floaters form from solid vitreous fluid in the eye when you were a baby as you age it dissolves
Floaters can't be felt. Dr. Dan
No, I have eye floaters and I'm young, and they are black.
You need to see an optometrist for an eye exam Another answer No, eye floaters are not bad, a lot of people have them, they usually won't remove them.

Yes
no dummy
Flashers and floaters are pretty common eye problems, even if you have had floaters for years; if you see new ones you should go and have a general eye exam. There is no special exam for flashers either. You just have to talk with your eye care doctor for the best treatment.
Not usually unless it is in their genes. If their parents have eye floaters, it is most likely that this would happen.
He should get an eye checkup. 13 is quite young to be getting floaters. So a checkup would be a good idea.
