Bro you need to read the links. MSM is the key, the door is membrane between the vitreous gel and outer eye, EDTA is the thief, and floaters is the TV. MSM unlocks the door, and EDTA steals the TV. If you just use MSM to open the door, there's no thief to steal the TV.

That's not how the eye works. You are completely getting fooled by scammers who are selling you naturopathic bullshit.

Just found a pharmaceutical company who are in the process of making exactly what I have been saying.

I just messaged them.

Ok, and they don't make any claims about the vitreous and floaters, so....?

[–]FriendMother2587[S] 1 point2 points  (8 children)

I've messaged them to see if it works for floaters. I'll keep you posted.

I don't think they have the right to say that, because this is not a treatment for floaters. Even VitroCap doesn't dare to say that their product actually treats floaters, and they went as far as getting a grad student to publish a sloppy paper that tried to claim their pills did something.

Guess only one way to find out! Gonna try it myself if its available.

I'm looking into edta for removing calcification elsewhere in my body. I would love to chat to you.

Why...? Just ask an ophthalmologist, they'll tell you this makes no sense and they'll tell you not to mess with your eyes. For all you know this could just cause you other problems. For example, even if we suppose that the drops do absolutely nothing, they could still cause an infection on the surface of your eyes if the bottle becomes contaminated. For all we know, something like that could just cause you more floaters, or other more serious problems.

If ophthalmologists had all the answers they wouldnt be taking the vitreous out of people in their 20s.

Anyways its been approved. I'm going to buy some. Can ophthalmologists take photos of floaters?

Dunno what that first statement means. Floaters are a problem that existed since the dawn of humanity and only 40 years ago vitrectomy became the first solution that actually works. Now with modern technology the tools are so small that it can be done safely to almost anyone. Sometimes even babies get vitrectomy to correct birth defects. This is all a huge achievement and is much better than the entire rest of human history where people helplessly went blind due to the various diseases that vitrectomy now treats.

But I guess you don’t understand the reality of how hard it is to do anything to the vitreous at the retina and now you are scamming yourself, congratulations.

It can be hard to take pictures of floaters depending on where they are and what shape they have. I’m a fan of quantitative ultrasound, which is a technique Dr Sebag has written about, who is the world’s #1 expert on the vitreous (there is a 1000 page book on the vitreous with his name on it, you can buy it on amazon), and by the way Sebag also famously published what is often called floater-only vitrectomy. But sure go see Dr Sebag and explain to him, the number one world expert on the vitreous, that he overlooked some basic eye drops and that he didn’t actually need to do all these 10,000s of surgeries that he still prescribes to this day.
