A retinal tear or detached retina is a serious and potentially sight-threatening condition.
Eye floaters and flashes are caused by changes in the vitreous gel that occur as we get older. Eye floaters occur when the vitreous gel thickens or shrinks due to aging, causing particles to form in the gel. These particles block the light passing through your eye, casting shadows on the retina. The shadows are seen as floaters, which can be created by: The formation of protein clumps in the vitreous gel. These types of eye floaters tend to look like squiggles, cobwebs, tadpoles, or circles.
