Thanks for sharing your story. Wow that sounds brutal. Almost sounds like having a blotch on your eyeglasses you can't clean. Do the floaters move around in you

Thanks for sharing your story. Wow that sounds brutal. Almost sounds like having a blotch on your eyeglasses you can't clean. Do the floaters move around in your vision too? Because if they stay in one place, I imagine it could be tuned out, like your said, but it would be incredibly distracting if it moved.

They do move around, but they drift down to the bottom of the eyeball, so they're not very noticeable when looking forward. I really only remember they're there at all when I'm looking down. The standard advice for dealing with floaters is "wait six months for them to settle out", so I didn't bother seeking out a doctor. And most of them have settled (maybe still are settling?), but it's now been long enough that I should probably check in with someone....
