"visual snow" (see definition in Wikipedia.com) and vitreous floaters are definitely not the same. I have never seen a case in my clinic of visual snow but see floaters many times every day.

visual snow is nothin but vitreous fluid. ignore it n live life.
as they define in text books " floaters are dots or cobweb structure or net like structure". visual snow are floaters or net like structure.
You can use the search feature and archives to read about visual snow. I know nothing about it from clinical experience. None of the many posts have identified any treatment.
