cataracts don't move, it's like looking through a dirty window. Use Google images and search "cataracts" and "floaters" and look at the difference. Floaters move, some a little, some a lot.

If my floaters were cataracts, would they move when I moved my eyes though?
I am waiting for the referral, but I will not get it until Thursday.
You will need to see an ophthalmologist to determine if you have cataract and if the floaters are of any concern. The GP just can't tell without the proper equipment and training, I should know I was a GP for 3 years before becoming an Ophthalmologist (Eye MD).
