Hello Edwin,
I think you must consult an Optometrist or an Ophthalmologist fast. Floaters and flashes are signs of 'retinal detachment' in the early stage. If you wear thick glasses then you are very prone to have one. Consult an eye doctor.

I'm 53 and had developed eye floaters about 4 or 5 years ago. The doctors told me that they're harmless, but whoever has had them knows how annoying they are. They also said that I could have them "burned off" with laser surgery, but there was no way I was going to "burn" anything off my eyes! So I kind of accepted that my floaters were there to stay.
Then I came across this system, and seeing that you were offering a full money back guarantee, I figured I had nothing to lose well I was wrong - I did lose my floaters!! Oh my god I still can't believe my floaters are gone and my vision is as pristine as it was 5 years ago!
Getting rid of eye floaters without the high costs & dangers of laser treatments?

I get them a lot too. And they bother me a lot sometimes. Especially when I'm outside for some reason.
I asked my optometrist about it once and he said it was completely normal and not harmful.
I guess we'll have to learn to live with them.

They seem to come for a spell and then disappear for an extended time.. you can get them to move out of your direct line of vision by moving the eye from side to side.. or, just let them float out of the way.usually going downward and laterally.

It doesn't sound like they are anything that is very serious normally. You might want to check with your eye doctor to confirm.

I have experienced them on and off for most of my life.It has been a long time since I last saw the floaters.Likely it is normal.

Most people have eye floaters.
Young and old.
Don't focus on them.
Look past them.
