          Having an astigmatism that changes really frequently means I notice these more obviously within months of changing my prescription. Fuck these things!

              This is not inside your eye, it's outside out there. Please, do not ignore it and write to your FBI agent immediately

                      For some reason this comment is what made me finally realise that I haven't seen floaters since I stopped needing glasses

                        Near-sightedness makes you more likely to notice them, but I don't think it's a serious sign of anything unless you're seeing them so much that it's a problem. They're always there in healthy eyes, your brain just tunes them out most of the time. I would assume that changes in the way your eye focusses - either because of a change in the actual eye like the person above describes or because of a change in the prescription of glasses changing the light that enters your eye - just makes it more likely for your brain to not tune them out because they suddenly look a bit different to what your brain got used to

                          That'd be more likely filariasis, an infection caused by a subgroup of nematodes, like roundworms.

                          Tapeworms are entirely different animals and I don't think they'd survive in the eyes.

                          Of course, they don't look like that because you can see the actual worm moving around the eyeball if that were the case.

                            Eyeworms. Villagers get them from touching raw meat then rubbing their eyes. It's only a matter of time before the worms burrow into your brain. Then you shit yourself and die in a most embarassing way.

                                I have a lot of these because I’ve had numerous eye surgeries and they’re ultimately just gunk in the vitreous fluid of the eye. I wish there was a way that they could drain, filter, and replace your vitreous fluid when it gets like mine. Like an eyeball oil change. There’s not though, as far as I know.

                                A tip: if you suddenly see a ton more of these get it checked out asap, especially if you are very near sighted

                                    If it makes you feel any better you’ll know when it happens, they increase by a lot. If they increase noticeably you should get it checked out but if it increases so substantially that you’re like man what the hell is going on then you need emergency care, basically, but also you can’t really miss it?
