[senco-forum] floater in eye

I have suffered from large floaters for years and recently they have become
very intrusive. It is good to know I am not the only one - but I wish there
was something that could be done .

Hi,

I have suffered from Iritis on and off for over 20 years and one of the
side effects is PVD - posterior vitreous detachment - causing large
floaters in both eyes. This supposed to occur naturally from the age of
65 onwards but I'm nowhere near that yet. You DO get used to them
eventually but then just as I find I can ignore one lot along comes
another!

PS Just wondering why, if Iritis is VERY VERY uncommon (quote doctor)
and nothing to do with computers, how come two other people working in
this ICT department have it as well?

quite suddenly I have got one which is really irritating me when I use
the computer. I understand they are common woth people my age - ( just
got my freedom pass) and my brain will learn to ignore them . Has anyone
else had this experience or is there any advice?
