Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Sounds like floaters . To rule out any retinal hole or tear we need a complete retinal examination . If any problem is there we might need to do a retinal laser.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
