Floaters: the floaters represent liquefaction of the vitreous gel inside your eye. When floaters rapidly increase in number or are associated with flashing lights or a disturbance in your peripheral vision, That could indicate a hole or tear in your retina. You need an eye exam to make sure your retina is Ok. Most often floaters are benign and are left alone. Rarely vitrectomy surgery or laser can be used
