Question:
I have  a Eye Floater in my left eye will an eye floater develop in my right eye?

Answer:
Thanks for you question Jerry. If floaters in the eye develop they usually will appear and or increase as we get into our middle aged to senior years. One may be more at risk of developing floaters in the eye if the following conditions are present.

• You have Diabetes
• Have had cataract surgery
• very Near Sighted

I don’t know if you will develop an eve floater or two in you right eye, but for the most part these little guys are harm less and do not require any treatment.

Has any one seen Vision Floaters In The Eye?  I never knew what they were until recently.  Vision floaters are tiny “webs” or specks that float about in your eye or eyes. In your field of vision you may see small, dark, shadowy shapes that can look like spots, thread-like strands, or squiggly lines. Here is an example of floaters in the eye:

They move as your eyes move and seem to jump away when you try to see the floaters directly. Vision Floaters do not follow your eye movements precisely, and usually drift when your eyes stop moving. Many people have floaters in the eye and learn to ignore them; they are usually not as noticeable until they become numerous or more prominent. Floaters in the eye can become apparent when looking at something bright, such as white paper or a blue sky.
