I woke up one morning with loads of eye floaters i had my eyes tested everything was normal. what else could it be? it's been 4 weeks now.

Floaters: This may represent a condition known as vitreous floaters. This is due to condensation and liquefication of 'jelly' (vitreous) in the back of the eye. However, new or an increase in the amount of floaters should be evaluated by an eye care professional.
