Above is one recent discussion on floaters. If you look up at the top of this page you will see "search". Put in what you are searching for "floaters". There are more links, I thought you might like to see which one applies more to you.
I have them and they are very distracting!!

- With lyme & co. comes a lot of toxicity. That increases the "debris" in the body and can also affect the eyes. Antioxidants are key to helping clean up debris in the eyes (just as liver support helps the liver & also helps the eyes in the long run).
FLOATERS are very common but, perhaps, a bit more so at times for those with lyme, due to various factors. Debris is just one. Tissue can be more tender, too, and those with lyme sometimes fall (and that can cause floaters).
[From a previous question but will leave this in just in case others may wonder: Floaters are not spirochetes. Spirochetes are far too microscopic to see like that.]
Learn the difference between regular floaters and the kind for which your eye doctor must be seen, immediately (such as with a tear of the vitreous):
Book & website: THE EYE CARE REVOLUTION - by Robert Abel, Jr. M.D. (Ophthalmologist)
- Though not at all about lyme, this is one of the best reference resources on my bookshelf that has wonderful chapters, many graciously available through their website.
ASTAXANTHIN - an antioxidant that has great promise for the eyes
Also be sure to get your FISH OIL - Many here really like OmegaBrite - just Google.
TAURINE is an essential amino acid for the eyes. Be sure your diet includes enough. Vegetarians MUST supplement as it's primarily in muscle meat, fish and eggs. -
