eye floaters?

[caseysmom]

Had the first one a few years ago, freaked out about it, but turns out it is just bits of the vitreous fluid in your eye that have solidified. The big ones (mine was "spectacular" according to the eye doc) will break up in time, but it is just, I was told, part of getting older. The migraine may just mean you are noticing them more.

Flashes of light in your eye are different, THAT is something worth worrying about. I am VERY nearsighted, so every time I have a check-up they ask about that, as they worry about retina detachment, and that can be a sign of that.

Thanks Karen that makes me feel better.
