Vitreous is a gel-like fluid that maintains\nthe shape of the eye, acts as a shock absorber and induce a slight pressure in\nthe eyeball, to let the eyeball remain sticked to the back wall of the eye. The\ngel-like substance is about 98% water, but it is thicker than water because of\nsubstances that make it more viscous. Vitreous is transparent, allowing the\nlight to transmit through it onto the retina, but as people age, some of this\nfluid begins to dry out, or gel lumps start to form in the fluid. This cause\ndeterioration of other components of the eye due to age or lack of collagen\naround the vitreous, eye floater start appearing. Eye floaters are created by\nlumps of protein that accumulates in the vitreous humor of your eyes. &nbsp;They appear as dots, strands, strings,\nsquiggles, other figures like chromosomes or spider webs. Mostly are shadowy\nlines on the retina due to the microscopic debris in the eye\u2019s vitreous humor. Eye\nfloaters can result from an eye injury, after cataract surgery, due to eye\ninflammation or after laser surgery of the eye. Nothing is required to break\nthem around; they remain afloat in the eye for several months. They settle down\nsomehow, but sometimes they remain hanging in the eye, and people get used to\nthem. Flashes occur when the vitreous gel bumps rub against the retina. Flashes\nand floaters are not harmful and do not require treatment. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reliablerxpharmacy.com\/eye-care.html\">Buy eye care\nproducts<\/a><\/strong> like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reliablerxpharmacy.com\/careprost-3ml-eye-drops.html\">Careprost\n3ml eye drop<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>However, you should see a doctor if Eye Floaters:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Are\naccompanied by flashes,<\/li><li>Suddenly\nappear when you don\u2019t have them before,<\/li><li>Multiply\nquickly when you only have had one or two before,<\/li><li>Are\naccompanied by peripheral vision loss or darkness.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These symptoms could indicate\ntearing of the retina, which may occur due to shrinking of the vitreous humor,\nretinal detachment, or other causes.
