Amsler grid results - problem duplicate lines

[TomBio]

Using my Amsler grid I notice that all the horizontal lines have another line right underneath.
I attached a photo to illustrate the problem.

All lines are straight, no obvious problems other than mentioned above.

Is this a serious issue?

At age 70 you need to see an ophthalmologist annually. I do not think its something to pass over and I would recommend you see an ophthalmologist as soon as you can get in.  This is VIP call today for an Eye MD appointment soon

I saw an ophthalmologist 2 to 3 years ago.
He said I had little bit of cataract, pressure in the eyes was a little high but I had a thick cornea so that mitigated it.

But judging be the pattern in the photo I submitted, is it a common? I first noticed it while reading a book with my readings glasses on. There was a slight duplication of the words right under the line I was reading. My left eye more affected than the right.

I have some floaters and hair like floaters in both eyes but a little more in the left.

My question really is, from what I've described is this something that you would find very serious, something to watch or just live with it like floaters and the consequence of getting older?  

Thank you for your continuing help -- it's very much appreciated.

Why are you using an amsler grid? Have you been diagnosied with age related macular degeneration. It's an usual patter but if its new and different than what you see you need to contact your ophthalmologist or optometrist
