Where is massage effective for floaters?
Floaters, also known as vitreous opacities, can be divided into physiological and pathological types. Massaging generally has no therapeutic effect on vitreous opacities. In cases of physiological vitreous opacities, it is important to rest, reduce close-up activities to avoid eye strain, and use treatments like amino peptide eye drops and sodium hyaluronate eye drops. Usually, physiological opacities do not affect vision. However, if the vitreous opacities are pathological and severely impact vision, one should visit an ophthalmologist for an eye examination, including tests for visual acuity, intraocular pressure, ocular ultrasonography, and fundus photography, and pursue active treatment to restore normal vision.
