Can taking antioxidant, taurine, hyaluonic acid, omega 3 cure my eye floaters, having floaters past 1 year, eye normal checked by retina specialist.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No effect: Floaters are membrane fragments suspended in the vitreous behind the lens of the eye. Those chemicals will have no effect on them although they seem otherwise harmless.
