Floaters can completely be treated with warm compresses on the eyes, but if the purpose is to treat floaters, then it is meaningless because warm compresses have no effect on the treatment of floaters. Floaters can be divided into physiological floaters and pathological floaters. Physiological floaters do not affect vision at all; one cannot see clearly in dark places, but can see floaters in bright conditions. In such cases, it is only necessary to ensure adequate rest, use eyes properly, and appropriately use medicines like Ammonium Iodide Peptide Eye Drops, or Phosphatidylcholine Complex Iodine Tablets. If it is a pathological vitreous opacity, one should visit the ophthalmology department for thorough examinations and active treatment to strive for the restoration of vision. (Please use medication under the guidance of a physician.)

How to maintain health with floaters normally.

Floating specks is a common ophthalmic disease, caused by vitreous opacities. It frequently occurs in patients with high myopia and the middle-aged and elderly, typically due to aging factors that lead to the formation of dot-like or thread-like turbid substances in the originally transparent vitreous tissue. When light passes through the vitreous body and is refracted, projecting onto the retina, it casts these shadows onto the retina as well, causing patients to see floating speck-like shadows in their field of vision. Patients with floating specks should take the following measures for care: First, maintain eye hygiene, do not rub your eyes; rubbing does not alleviate floating specks and may increase the risk of eye infections. Second, eat more iodine-rich foods, such as kelp, to promote the absorption of vitreous opacities.

How should acute floater syndrome be treated?

Vitreous opacity, also known as floaters, generally does not have acute attacks. Floaters can be divided into physiological and pathological types. Physiological floaters generally do not require special treatment because they do not affect vision. It's important to rest properly, use eyes correctly, and use Amupeptide eye drops when necessary. Pathological vitreous opacity affects vision and must undergo further ophthalmic examinations, such as tests for uncorrected visual acuity, corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, ocular ultrasound, and fundus photography. Treatment should be tailored according to the condition, especially treating the underlying cause. Vitreous opacity can affect vision, but with active treatment, vision generally can be partially restored.

Can flying mosquito disease go untreated for over twenty years?

If it is physiological floaters, generally there is no special treatment, and they are relatively stable and do not affect vision. Patients mainly experience floating shapes that vary in appearance in front of their eyes. Typically, these floaters are more visible under bright light and less visible or invisible under dim light. If there are not many floaters, it is advised to rest and treat the symptoms accordingly. If the patient requests treatment, therapies like amino iodine eye drops or sodium hyaluronate eye drops can be used. Treatment can improve the patient's mood, but generally, the condition does not worsen.

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.
