Yes, move on with life and they tend to fade into unawareness. I felt the same way when mine came on.

1. The medications for vitreous liquification is still in the testing stage. When released it is very unlikely to be covered by insurance companies for routine floaters, likely just for some forms of diabetic eye disease and perhaps high risk vitreous traction on the retina or macula.
2. I have a Weiss ring in my LE. I never thought I would get use to it. Now I never notice it unless I think about it or am talking to my patients about floaters.
3. Go to Dr. Hagan's blog and read the posting on dry eyes.
