A member asked:
Why would i have gotten a web of floaters over a few days? i went to 2 ods and they both said my eyes were fine and looked really healthy.

Might be OK but .: Your best bet for something like this is to see and ophthalmologist - the real eye doctors. ODs largely are interested in selling contacts and glasses and cannot give the final word on something like this. On the other hand, you are only 16 and serious issues with webs and floaters are very uncommon at your age. Nonetheless, see and ophthalmologist for this.
