[QUOTE="Star*, post: 427077, member: 4964"] I have had horrible floaters since I was a child. I had a very good (when I had insurance) opthamologist who had me doing exercises for my eyes. They hurt a little, but it's like push ups for your eyes. Everyone laughed - but they did help and a lot of docotrs said it wouldn't work. Well - I'm happy to report that I have minimal floaters now and when they do happen to float in my line of sight? I do the exercises and they don't hang around too long. Exercises consist of taking your index finger - and making your eye with the floaters follow the finger to the farthest corner out of your line of vision and up, to the ceiling and down. (repeat) You do this for approx. 10 minutes two to three times a day. I was supposed to also take a beta carrotene supplement, but never did. I just did the exercises until the floaters seemed to go away. Like I said a lot of the eye doctors said they will just go away when they go away - but I felt I strengthened the muscles in my eyes and I have very poor vision. I'm -4.5- and -5.00 today so it didn't improve my vision - I mean your eyeball is going to flatten out no matter with age. [/QUOTE]
