I too have floaters that started, but,mine started at 20.  I had cataract surgery and now I have many floaters plus one that sorta blocks my vision.   I don't know what is going now?  Please help answer our question.

you could been seen any eye doctor and done wrong tests, my advice is ask your doctor for ordering for you MRI with contrast(best way with contrast as result will be more clear to see it) if i were you i would do the brain-head MRI including orbitical nerve, eye doctor knows what it means.
I personality have several medical problems and on my vision as well, i could never expect that because of the tumor on my nerve i will be blind on one eye, you never know.
Good luck.
