Hi all,
I had sufferred eye floaters since childhood. As my age increasing (now I'm 30), the floaters got increased in their size and quantity, but they won't really be a problem if they are not located near the center of my sight which is very disturbing to my daily activities. My job is a software programmer where I have to stare at monitor for many hours, so I often have to see them. Unfortunately, there is no risk-free and affordable cure for the eye floaters currently. It's very depressing that I have to endure this defect or disease for entire of my life. Sometimes I envy for other people that has healthy eyes. Now I can only hope for my past good kamma ripen (if there are) which will cure my eyes someday (sounds like expecting miracle, isn't it? )
Of course, I won't ask a cure here, but maybe anyone here can give me a consolation from Buddha Dhamma perspective how to deal with this this problem? I would greatly appreciate.
Any suggestions of how to deal with eye floaters ?

I have them too but have kind of just got used to them and don't notice them much any more. It might help to reflect on the First Noble Truth.faraway wrote: Of course, I won't ask a cure here, but maybe anyone here can give me a consolation from Buddha Dhamma perspective how to deal with this this problem?

Buddha save me from new-agers!

Please both of you, don't ignore them. They can be a symptom of diabetes and can indicate the start of deterioration of the blood vessels in the eye. Make sure an eye doctor/ophthalmologist does thorough testing. Could be nothing. Could be something. Better to be sure than sorry. Good luck!
