Stress and anxiety do not create floaters but they make existing floaters worse since people that are anxious, depressed and stressed tend to fixate on them.

we do not know how to prevent floaters. They are a nomral part of aging 50% by age 50 and 75% by and 70.

A new medicine that will disolve floaters is under study. it is still experimental

Is there an actual research medication?

That means I've read the conversation thread and do not have any further comments.

This is a link to the medicine that disolves floaters. Note that it is being developed for diabetic retinopathy not routine getting rid of common floaters
