A member asked:
Is it norml for a squiggly eye floater to grow into 3/4 big strands into diff direction?

Yes: Floaters are three dimensional and can twist a little with eye motion which rocks the fluids supporting the floater. So you can see it from various angles which can change the appearance.

Eye floater: No, this is not normal. You should be examined by an opthomologist for this condition.
