Floaters generally result from vitreous opacification. For physiological floaters, it is usually not necessary to use proparacaine eye drops; instead, amide iodine eye drops and sodium hyaluronate eye drops should be used for treatment. Pathological vitreous opacification that affects vision requires further examination by an ophthalmologist and active treatment. Physiological vitreous opacification typically does not affect vision. It is only under bright light that moving objects may be seen floating in front of the eyes, which are less noticeable or disappear in dim light. Normally, taking care to rest, reducing close-up tasks, and avoiding eye fatigue should gradually lead to improvement, along with regular follow-up consultations. (Note: The use of medications should be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor.)

The difference between transparent and black flying mosquito disease

Floaters appear before the eyes as either transparent or opaque, black objects—it's a matter of severity, generally not affecting vision. Floaters can be classified as physiological or pathological. Physiological floaters generally require only rest, reducing close-up tasks, and avoiding eye fatigue. Treatments can include using Ametiodine eye drops and Sodium Hyaluronate eye drops. If the floaters are pathological, one should visit an ophthalmologist for examinations such as an ultrasound (B-scan), intraocular pressure test, uncorrected visual acuity, corrected visual acuity, and fundus photography. Active treatment and regular follow-ups should be pursued, with close attention to vision changes. (Please use medication under medical supervision.)

Can flying mosquito disease go untreated for over twenty years?

If it is physiological floaters, generally there is no special treatment, and they are relatively stable and do not affect vision. Patients mainly experience floating shapes that vary in appearance in front of their eyes. Typically, these floaters are more visible under bright light and less visible or invisible under dim light. If there are not many floaters, it is advised to rest and treat the symptoms accordingly. If the patient requests treatment, therapies like amino iodine eye drops or sodium hyaluronate eye drops can be used. Treatment can improve the patient's mood, but generally, the condition does not worsen.

Can people with floaters drink alcohol?

Floaters refer to vitreous opacities, which can be classified into physiological vitreous opacities and pathological vitreous opacities. Physiological vitreous opacities generally do not affect vision. Their main symptom is that objects floating in front of the eyes become more noticeable in bright light and less visible in darker environments or at night. Drinking alcohol does not affect physiological vitreous opacities. However, pathological vitreous opacities do affect vision and require active treatment and examination to alleviate their impact on vision. For pathological vitreous opacities, it is generally advised not to consume alcohol, to follow a light diet, to rest adequately, and to undergo regular check-ups.

Severe cases of floaters can lead to what outcomes?

Floaters, also known as vitreous opacities, can be divided into physiological and pathological types. Physiological vitreous opacities, even if severe, do not affect vision, but simply result in a higher number of floating objects seen in the field of vision. Pathological vitreous opacities, on the other hand, can significantly decrease vision and may even lead to blindness. Therefore, during an examination, it is important to first check the uncorrected visual acuity, corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, ocular B-ultrasound, and fundus photography. If there are any underlying eye conditions, they should be actively treated to potentially restore vision as soon as possible. It is also advisable to ensure adequate rest, reduce close-up activities, and maintain a light diet.

What will happen if the floater condition becomes severe?

Floater, also called vitreous opacity, can affect vision if it is severe. Vitreous opacity can be divided into physiological and pathological types. Physiological vitreous opacities, generally referred to as floaters, do not affect vision. They are more visible in bright light and less visible in dim light or at night. Treatment primarily involves rest, proper eye usage, and the appropriate use of Amiodine eye drops, with regular check-ups recommended. If vision is affected, further examination in an ophthalmology department is advised, including checks of intraocular pressure, an ocular B-scan ultrasound, and fundus photography, with treatment adjusted according to the condition and regular reviews. (Please use medication under the guidance of a physician.)
