Causes for flashes and floaters. Flashes and floaters can be caused by: Detachment of the jelly-like âvitreousâ from the retina. Detachement of the innermost light-sensitive layer of the eye is the most common cause of floaters and flashes. Posterior vitreous detachment occurs naturally as we get older, typically around ages 55 to 60.
Floaters in the eye are usually caused by age, but eye injuries or serious vision-threatening conditions such as retinal holes, tears, or detachments can cause them. As we age, the vitreous humor (the jelly-like substance that fills the inner eye) begins to clump in certain areas.
