A member asked:

Strange floating and impaired visual symptoms, any ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get checked: The one thing you need to rule out is a retinal detachment. When the retina peals off, it causes large floaters and a graying of the vision in one or more sections. It may just be a vitreous detachment (which happens to most people) or a common floaters, but you need to have it checked.
