Supplements can help but optimum eye health, as with every other part of the human oganism depends mainly on correct nutrition with live foods. Be sure to eat plenty of uncooked (not canned)fresh spinach,carrots and tomatoes in particular. --- On Wed, 10/2/10, shygabriel <faustina0317 wrote: shygabriel <faustina0317 << >> " Floaters " in the Eye Wednesday, 10 February, 2010, 7:50  A small, round " floater " suddenly arrived in my eye, followed by several thread-like shapes. They came out-of-the-blue, with no warning. The ophthalmologist said, after checking to make sure there was no retinal detachment, that they were " age-related " and tended to occur in very near-sighted individuals (which I am.) The MD said that they did not tend to disappear spontaneously, but that a person " learns to live with them " and " doesn't notice them anymore " . But I am wondering if there is something else I can do to get rid of these things, and to make sure that no more appear. I have been taking a vision supplement for several years, containing bilberry, lutein, and other nutrients for eye health. I am 57 years old and thought my eyes were in pretty good shape, as I have no sign of glaucoma, and only started using reading glasses (occasionally) this year. If anyone has any information about alternative methods to getting rid of " floaters " in the eye, I would appreciate it - Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
