Can floaters in both eyes be fixed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on the cause: It depends what caused the floaters. For most people, vitreous floaters can disappear over a period of weeks to months - eventually the brain "tunes out" the floaters so they're not very visible. Unfortunately, other floaters may then form over time. However, floaters can also be a sign of serious retinal problems - for any new or changes in floaters, see an md immediately.
