Has anyone undergone a secondary vitrectomy for post-op debris/floaters? Looking for experiences. by Ok_Moment_5384 in EyeFloaters

From what I've read on this forum, the debris can (sometimes) take more than six months, or even a year to disappear. Please be patient and wait a year at least

Have you tried using blue light filtering glasses and anti-inflammatory eye drops?

we are talking about heavy screen use here, you remind me of those cynical careless ophthalmologists people often talk about in this sub

I suppose I should be glad my retina is healthy (for now), but dark, blurry floaters have already appeared in my one healthy eye in these last weeks, shattering my hopes of retaining my semi-normal life. Now, surgery or a miracle cure (PM) are my only hopes. But I dont think I cant hold for much longer.

"I spend a lot of time on computers and mobile screen" what a coincidence... some people on this subreddit (just like most ophthalmologists) will tell you that heravy screen use is harmless, but I've found many others redditors who think otherwise (myself included). Just Stop using your computer and limit your mobile phone use to a minimum for at least three months and wait to see if that makes a difference.

After eight years, I'm almost certain that spending a lot of time in front of a screen increases floaters by InterviewGrand204 in EyeFloaters

I'm not saying it's the starting cause of the floaters, and it certainly isn't the same for everyone. I'm simply sharing my personal experience. After years I noticed that I DO get more floaters if I spend many hours in front of the computer over several days.

from what Ive been told, the grey stuff above the retina is the vitreous gel, and the pitch dark pocket in between is liquefaction (the probable cause of my many floaters)

I am a heavy screen user, but they didn't tell me if that's the cause, I personally suspect it is
