of course i’m too lazy to open the article, but i have had floaters since 14 and they SUCK and I have MANY, to the point that i think it’s insects or even my cat has crossed past the corner of my eye.
But they are benign for me at least, they just suck.
But i’m sure there’s instances when they are appearing for far more nefarious reasons.
the take away from that article for me was to watch for the weird white circle around the iris. I had to look up what it looks like.
I have them and they are annoying as hell.
I have them off and on too, since I was really young.
