Is it common to see like hyphae and clouds floating in front of your retina?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Relatively common: What you are seeing is called vitreous floaters and they are very common. See your eyemd if they increase, or are associated with flashes, as that could be a warning of a retinal tear or detachment.
