A member asked:

20//20 vision,no trauma or inflammation ever,tested by indirect opthalmoscope thrice,docs say perfect eyes,what can be the cause of floaters?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Benign floaters: Most of the time the cause of benign floaters is unknown. Be assured that your floaters are merely a nuisance in view of your normal findings by your ophthalmologist.
