Help me with advice for my eye floaters and how to recover?

Evaluated: Any new floaters need to be evaluated "recovery" takes time and consists of the floaters becoming less dense, and your brain becoming more tolerant.

Depends: First question is have you had a dilated exam to make sure that the floaters are not accompanied by other findings such as retinal tears? As a retina specialist, i rarely recommend surgery for floaters. Usually they are not severe enough to require any treatment. Another option is yag vitreolysis. This doesn't always work either. That leaves you with adapting to the floaters.
