Eye floaters and CAA disqualification
As you can tell be my name, I want to be a pilot. However my only worry is not being able to pass the CAA Class one medical due to the fact I have 3-4 medium to small size floaters in my left eye. Will these be a problem - I note you have had some experience doing medicals in the Airforce so I hope you can give me an answer regarding this?
Thank you for taking time to read this,

Thank you that's very helpful - if the examiner could see you have floaters and seems to think they will be a hindrance will/could (s)he fail you - or is that event unlikely?
Sorry for any inconvenience.

The pilot exams I have done list ask for the vision and the floaters should not affect the vision testing.
