Eye Floaters disease and its treatment at the Spanish Center Dubai

Flyfly is a common eye condition in which a person sees dots, strings, or small specks floating in their field of vision. These dots may look like butterflies, cobwebs, foam, or black spots.

Causes of Eye Floaters

There can be many causes for fly gnats, including:

  •     Vitreous degeneration:
    The vitreous consists of a transparent gelatinous substance in the eye, and it begins to fibrosis with age. This can cause spots or streaks to appear in the field of vision.
  •     Collagens or hyaluronic acid aggregates:
    These substances can accumulate in the vitreous, causing dots or threads to appear in the field of vision.
  •     Vitreous detachment or hemorrhage:
    This can lead to the appearance of spots or strings in the field of vision, and may also be accompanied by eye pain.
  •     Ophthalmic surgery complications:
    Flies can occur after eye surgery, such as LASIK or cataract surgery.

Medications for floaters  

The following medications can be used to treat floaters:

  •     Antihistamines:  
    Antihistamines can help reduce inflammation that may contribute to the appearance of floaters.
  •     Antioxidants: 
    Antioxidants can help protect the vitreous from damage.
  •     Lutein and zeaxanthin supplements:  
    Lutein and zeaxanthin supplements can help protect the vitreous from damage.

If the floater is caused by another medical condition, such as age-related macular degeneration or iritis, the doctor may prescribe medications to treat the underlying condition.

In some cases, the doctor may recommend surgery to remove the floater. However, surgery is not always successful, and it may lead to complications.

Tips for relieving floater symptoms  

In addition to medications, there are some tips that can help relieve floater symptoms, including:

  •     Wearing sunglasses that block ultraviolet (UV) light:  
    Sunglasses can help protect from UV light, which can contribute to vitreous damage.
  •     Avoiding smoking:
    Smoking can damage the vitreous.
  •     Eating a healthy diet:  
    Eating a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables can help protect the vitreous.
  •     Drinking plenty of water:
    Drinking plenty of water can help keep the vitreous hydrated.

Latest treatment for floaters  

The latest treatment for floaters is laser surgery. The laser is used to break up the clumps or fibers that cause the floater. Laser surgery can be effective in removing the floater or making it less noticeable.

There are two types of laser surgery for floaters:

  1.     Traditional laser surgery:  
    This type of surgery focuses on the clumps or fibers that cause the floater. It can be effective in removing the floater or making it less noticeable.
  2.     Micropulse laser surgery:  
    This type of surgery focuses on the cells that produce the clumps or fibers. It can be effective in preventing the formation of new floaters.

Laser surgery for floaters is usually performed in an ophthalmologist’s office. The procedure typically takes 15 minutes or less. You may experience some discomfort after the procedure, but it typically goes away within a few days.

Laser surgery for floaters can be effective in reducing the symptoms of floaters, but there is no guarantee that it will remove the floater completely.

Do floaters go away?  

Yes, floaters can go away on their own. In fact, in most cases, floaters will go away without any treatment within a year or two.

There are several possible reasons why floaters might go away, including:

  1.     The vitreous gradually dissolves:
    As you age, the vitreous becomes thicker and less elastic. This can lead to the floater shrinking in size or becoming less noticeable.
  2.     The floater moves to an area of the field of vision that is not visible:  
    The floater can move around inside the eye, which may cause it to disappear from your field of vision.
  3.     The brain adapts to the floater:  
    The brain can adapt to the presence of the floater, which can reduce the amount of discomfort it causes.

If you are experiencing floaters, it is important to see an ophthalmologist to determine the cause. If the floater is caused by an underlying medical condition, such as age-related macular degeneration or iritis, it may be important to treat the underlying condition to prevent further damage to the eye.

If you are considering laser surgery for floaters, it is important to talk to your ophthalmologist about the risks and benefits of the procedure.

Treatment of Eye Floaters

In most cases, fly fly treatment is not required. However, if fly gnats are severe or bothersome, your doctor may recommend one of the following treatments:

  •     Sunglasses or contact lenses:
    These can help reduce the vision of spots or strings.
  •     Laser treatment:
    A laser can be used to vaporize or break up points or threads.
  •     Surgery:
    Surgery may be performed to remove the vitreous or to repair any tears or bleeding.
