What Are Eye Floaters?

Floaters are tiny specks, threads, or cobweb-like shapes that drift across your field of vision, especially when looking at a bright, clear background like the sky or a white wall. Medically known as myodesopsias, these visual disturbances are caused by small clumps of the eye’s vitreous gel casting shadows on the retina.
They tend to track along with your eye movement—and while they can be distracting, they’re usually harmless.

Dr. Jeremy Edgerly and our experienced team offer advanced diagnostic tools and personalized care to evaluate floaters and protect your long-term vision.

If you’ve noticed new floaters, flashes of light, or shadows in your peripheral vision, don’t wait. Contact us today to schedule a comprehensive eye exam.

😱🤩 That mind-blown moment when you see a scan of your own retina!

At Mountain Brook Eye Care, our cutting-edge imaging technology gives us a detailed look at the health of your eyes. It’s also important for kids to have an eye exam because they may not always know how to communicate if there is an issue they’re experiencing with their vision.
