Eye floaters are little spots or specks in the vision that move or float when a person moves his eyes. When you try to focus on the spots, they seem to move quickly out of the visual field. Eye floaters are mostly harmless and do not affect the vision significantly, but it is recommended to get the eyes examined by an ophthalmologist on a regular basis if eye floaters are a frequent occurrence. A person may see the floaters as black/gray dots, cobwebs, cloud-like spots, curved lines, rings, or fine strands/strings. A person may see a single floater or the number may be up to hundreds, varying from case to case. Floaters appear more prominent when a person looks at light-colored backgrounds like the sky or a white wall. However, in the event of a sudden increase in eye floaters (especially if a person sees flashes of light or there is a loss of vision), an eye specialist should be consulted on an emergency basis, as it may be a signal of some critical condition like retinal detachment.
The homeopathic mode of treatment can help in effectively managing eye floaters. Homeopathic medicines give excellent results in cases of eye floaters having mild to moderate intensity. Homeopathic medicines treat eye floaters by fixing the root cause behind them. This way it provides long-term relief rather than temporary results in these cases. Before beginning a course of homeopathy to fix eye floaters, it is recommended that you visit an ophthalmologist to rule out the cause of eye floaters and any other critical condition. This is because homeopathy has limitations to help cases of eye floaters due to serious causes like retinal tear or bleeding in the eye where help from a conventional mode of treatment is recommended.
There is an enormous therapeutic list for managing eye floaters in homeopathy. Among them, the most suitable homeopathic medicine for eye floaters is selected individually after a detailed analysis of the case. The type of floaters, its worsening factors, cause, and any associated symptoms are given equal importance before finalizing the prescription. As no two cases present the same symptoms, hence the homeopathic prescription varies from person to person as per peculiar characteristic symptoms. Hence it is advisable to take homeopathic medicine after consulting a homeopathic doctor, and self-medication should be avoided.
Homeopathic medicines address the underlying cause in cases of eye floaters. Treating the associated cause is very important to provide long-term management of this complaint. Any treatment that works superficially does not provide long-lasting results. With well-selected homeopathic medicines taken for a long time period as recommended by a homeopathic doctor, many cases of mild to moderate intensity without any serious cause recover wonderfully. However, as said above, it is again emphasized that homeopathy cannot offer help in severe cases and in cases having serious causes where urgent help needs to be taken from the conventional mode of treatment.
Homeopathy treats complaints of eye floaters in a very safe and gentle manner. All the medicines used to treat it are sourced from naturally occurring substances. These medicines do not contain any sort of harmful chemicals and toxins, hence they have zero side effects.

Causes of Eye Floaters
In a majority of the cases, eye floaters arise due to age-related changes that appear in the vitreous inside the eyes. Vitreous humor is a liquid that occupies two thirds of the eyes. Vitreous humor is jelly-like, clear, and transparent matter. It consists mainly of water with a minor content of collagen, salt, and sugar. In aged people, the vitreous begins to liquefy, and the collagen fibers clump together. These strands cast a shadow on the retinal surface that a person perceives as eye floaters. Other causes behind eye floaters include hemorrhage in the vitreous, posterior uveitis (inflammation of the choroid, which is the back part of uvea) and tearing of the retina. Tearing of the retina may lead to retinal detachment that needs prompt treatment to prevent permanent vision loss. Some factors, including diabetes mellitus, injury to the eye and nearsightedness, raise the risk of eye floaters. Eye floaters may also be a part of aura (certain symptoms that occur before the actual onset of headache) in cases of migraine.

Hi ,thank you for this information ,after reading about the different homeopathic medicines for eye floaters,I think the phosphous and natrum mun( only a zig zag a few times) are what I should be taking….think this started 4 years ago when I fell and hit my head hard on the cement ,so maybe due to an injury also (arnica) also?… the black spots are increasing yearly,saw a doctor in the beginning ,but have not gone back… what do you suggest and is there one remedy with the ones I need or can I use them individually? Can you recommend brand names dosage or where one can purchase homeopathic medicines ? From you?? So far what I have come across has the ingredients of sucrose and lactose , which I prefer not to take……. thank you for your time …..jacqueline
Dr Sharma,
I am a senior aged woman who recently had my cataract surgery in the left eye. I had cataract surgery in my right eye in 2016 which went well and doing quite ok with that eye except for dryness for which I use Refresh eye drops.
However for the left which had surgery on 30 th July I have been having problems of blurriness etc and a YAG laser was performed on it recently. Since then the vision I see is wavy and distorted. The object looks closer , bigger and distorted. My Retina doctor has identified it as EpiRetinal membrane. He told me to wait it out for another three months if surgery needs to be done. Meanwhile I am having these floaters too in both eyes which are bothersome. Is there a homeopathy medicines (tabs)to dissolve these floaters?
Thanks- Mrs Saxena

Dear Dr Sharma,
I started having floaters and very thin wispy lines going across my vision since April. They are becoming increasingly annoying and I’m getting quite depressed about it. The optician says they will not go away but has checked my retina and vision which is alright. I suffer also from dry eyes. I really don’t know what to do to alleviate symptoms of floaters as they are now encroaching on my daily life. I am a school teacher. Is there anything you could suggest? Thank you so much – I’m desperate to try anything.

Hi,
I am suffering from eye floaters, started this year, as I observed. It was a crystal like thread or some DNA like structure in my right eye. Now, I have a single or two in left and 3 to 4 shadowd spots, web like in right eye. I consulted two eye specialists for this problem, both checked my eye sight, it was and is good. They asked me to ignore these along with some medication like systane and some vitamins for eye.
Now I’m worried that these will go increasingly, in numbers and I’m a computer graphic artist. For me it’s really annoying when I look straight in to the screen and see these structures in my eyes.
What should I do?
Thanks in advance for your response.
