Could Floaters In Eyes Be Due To PVD?

I have had floaters in my left eye since I was 14.
I learned to live with them and by now I barely notice them.
The problem is recently my right eye started getting floaters. (I am now 20)
I may have a PVD?
Note: I have a pretty good vision beside these floaters.
