Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Floaters are degenerative bodies in vitreous. There is nothing alarming. I f the number increased suddenly then fundus examination by indirect ophthalmo scope may be done to rule out retinal tear or detachment. If every thing is normal then nothing to worry. You have to learn to live with it.
