a lot of floaters in my eyes?:(

[hikaru753]

hello, im 15 years old. This few days i suddenly realized im seeing a lot of floaters in my eyes- im not sure if i simply didnt noticed them before or what. Also, i quite often see a black spot in my vision for a few moments, like the one u would get after looking at something really bright, even though i didnt look at anything bright. Is this a cause of worry?Thanks in advance!

Seeing floaters can be normal. Try taking carrot juice daily and please dont lift heavy weight as this can cause some strain.

Age 15 is young for floaters.  I recommend you see an opthamologist.

Floaters are generally not anything to worry about unless you see a sudden burst or cloud of them like soot or any sudden flashes of light.  Often once you start to fixate on them, you will notice them more.  Try to tune them out, and stay busy and focused on other things.  They will fade away from your attention.  The bright spot is also something that seems to be common.  There is a thread on this forum with over 600 posts about "bright spot when blinking" so you can read through that, or just get a dilated eye exam and accept it.  You can notice a lot of weird things with your eyes if you obsess about it.  If an ophthalmologist has examined you thoroughly and found nothing wrong, then don't sweat it.
