What People are Saying About Us

What Causes Floaters?

Floaters are caused by the clumping of collagen or connective tissue in the vitreous jelly that fills the space between the retina and the lens. Other substances, such as blood or white blood cells, can also contribute to the formation of floaters. Posterior vitreous detachment, or the separation of the vitreous jelly from the retina, can also cause the sudden onset of floaters.
