Does anyone here have the filmy kind of eye floaters...not necessarily the black dot type of eye floater? I notice them most when looking at something brighter like a window of computer screen. Didn't know if it was specific to Lyme or other coinfections. Any thoughts?

I have a few types. Some look like earwigs with long thin tenticles and the others are like blobs or dots. The earwig ones are a bit scary, but my eye doc tells me they are normal. I also wonder about their connection to tick borne illness.

I get an insane amount of eye mucous that can sometimes be film-like.

I take Stephania tincture (orally) that I buy from Etsy and it works fine.
