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.
Eye floaters can be clumpy or stringy; light or dark. They are caused by clumps of tissue embedded in the gel-like fluid (vitreous) in the back of the eye, which cast shadows on the retina when light enters the eye. Click on the image to see floaters in action.
