How to compare the number of floaters? i've got my laser barrage done on 13th may. i had floaters in my visual field before that too. and now i feel like they might have increased slightly or have i become conscious about them?

You should call your retina specialist if you think you see more floaters because it is considered a complication of laser therapy.
