Hi i started getting these black floaters in my right eye last year. I immediately googled and sent myself into a frenzy. I went to the opticians and he said they are common and nothing to worry about.He said after you have had them a few months you dont notice them.I still have it but i dont notice it much now.

100% certain that its nothing to worry about Heather. I have had these and this is no word of a lie for 6 months non stop. Every single day. I notice them more if i look at something clear, or if im outside. My optician said that they are floaters and are harmless :) x

Floaters, yep I get them every day and had my regular eye test a few weeks ago and was told my eyes are really healthy and the floaters are nothing to worry about :)
