It is very important to drink plenty of water, especially in the warmer months. Currently there is no pharmacological cure available to solve this condition. However it is very important that the patient tries to concentrate on the image that they are looking at, rather than the floaters, so they can allow the brain to adapt to their presence and eliminate them, at least from the visual point of view.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"when-is-most-likely-to-contact-your-doctor-in-case-of-floaters\">When is most likely to contact your doctor in case of floaters?<\/h2>\n<p>A doctor should be contacted with some of the listed diseases being diagnosed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","Example":[],"class_list":["post-82776","enciclopedia","type-enciclopedia","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Eye floaters (miodesopsia) - Humanitas.net<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"pl_PL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Eye floaters (miodesopsia) - Humanitas.net\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Floaters, scientifically known as &#8220;miodesopsia&#8221;, are point-like or thread-like movable bodies that project on the eye\u2019s retina, appearing within the visual field in a form of shadow strays.
