Are eye floaters a problem of the eye or a neurological problem?
Floaters are almost always an eye problem, most commonly caused by separation of the vitreous gel that fills the back 2/3 of the eye separating from its weak attachment to the optic nerve head. Less commonly, but less benign, floaters could be caused by a detachment of the retina, or bleeding in the eye. Finally, the symptoms of a migraine may be confused with floaters. In any event, any new onset of floaters should first be evaluated by an ophthalmologist. RICHARD P. MARGOLIES, MD READ MORE
