Hi, I'm a 15 year old male.
About 5 days ago I noticed a floater in my left eye, i only notice it in very bright light, like on the beach. I never noticed a floater before. I only have one floater right now, I think, (sometimes I think i have two). They're very transparent, but I still notice them. I'm average height for my age, and I'm also very healthy, I eat right and I'm the right weight as well. I don't understand why I have this floater, its incredibly annoying.
Ive done research, and it seems very uncommon for 15 year olds to have floaters. It also seems like (for Adults) the chances of floaters going away are not high, infact floaters dont really go away... but I'm not an Adult. I'm INCREDIBLY worried that I'll have floater problems the rest of my life, and I've become very stressed out.
I do wear contacts, and am near sighted, but ive been taking a break from my contacts lately, and just letting my eyes breath.
Is it possible that I have this floater because I'm in very hot weather right now or something? I'm just really annoyed,
WHEN WILL THE FLOATER GO AWAY. I'm also a photographer, so my eyes are my everything, I need to be able to see perfectly.
My eyes are a little red, but they're NOT in pain... They feel a little dried out, so maybe i should try some eye drops?
I don't know what to do, thanks.
