Eyes can see floating objects

Some patients have to stare at computer screens frequently due to work, which can cause excessive eye fatigue and lead to various eye diseases. Some people often play with their mobile phones and do not know how to properly rest their eyes, which can also cause eye diseases. These patients often feel that their vision is particularly blurred and can see some floating objects in front of their eyes. What is going on?

This is vitreous opacity, also known as floaters. Common turbidity shapes include linear, floc-like, dot-like, network-like, etc.

Vitreous opacities can be caused by vitreous degeneration, degeneration, traumatic bleeding penetrating the vitreous, peripheral inflammatory migration, and retinal diseases, forming floating opacities in the vitreous. When light shines on the retina, a dark shadow is formed, causing the visual shadow to float, which is particularly obvious under strong light.

A sudden increase in opacity should be considered as pathological opacity, and the suspicious eye lesions need to be carefully examined and the primary disease should be treated. If the black shadows suddenly increase and are accompanied by flashes, it should be taken seriously as there may be a possibility of retinal detachment.

If other eye diseases can be ruled out, it is physiological turbidity. Physiological vitreous opacities do not require treatment, and current medicine does not have a complete method to treat vitreous opacities. A small amount of opacity will cause visual distress but will not cause harm.

Common treatment drugs include: amiodine eye drops or antimetadine injections, which can promote vitreous blood circulation and help absorb turbidity;

You can take appropriate food supplements, such as animal liver, longan, lychee, carrot, celery, yam, sesame, wolfberry, chrysanthemum, cassia seed, etc.; you can do eye exercises and massage the eye acupoints to promote blood circulation and metabolism; be careful not to get tired, stay up late, or overuse your eyes.
