See below: Floaters are usually benign (not serious). They can result from a separation of the vitreous gel from the retina. This condition is called a posterior vitreous detachment (pvd). Although a PVD occurs commonly, there are no retinal tears associated with the condition most of the time. There are no safe and proven methods to cure the symptom of eye floaters-most fade over time or are less noticible.
