A member asked:

Round black spots in both eyes, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Spots: These are called floaters and due to degeneration in the vitreous of the eye. This is usually benign,and improves with time. However,it is important to see an ophthalmologist to make sure there is no retinal problem.
