Do you find your eye floaters irritate you daily and you struggle to focus on certain tasks? The good news is that you are not going to lose your eye sight due to floaters, but you do need to seek successful treatment for floaters to reduce your frustration. Most patients with floaters are able to ignore them for a period of time. Some patients can live with their floaters for years as you get used to the cobwebs moving around your eye. There are times when they can become too much and have a negative impact on your life. At this stage you will want to consider surgery to remove the floaters and improve your vision in the long run. The surgery that has proven the most successful treatment for floaters is a vitrectomy. Floaters are cobwebs which occur when the vitreous gel behind the eye starts to break away, this often happens with age. The vitrectomy removes the vitreous gel to remove any floaters, providing patients with a clear field of vision to enjoy moving forward. A vitrectomy is performed by a qualified ophthalmologist. The procedure is carried out as a day case with patients being able to return home for recover at the end of the day. Recovering at home can speed up the healing process. There are strict surgeon instructions to follow once you return home to speed up healing and ensure the surgery is a success. This will be discussed later On the day of surgery for successful treatment of floaters you will arrive at the eye hospital where you will be prepared for surgery. The surgery is carried out by the expert surgeon who will number the eye. You will remain awake through the operation, so you can chat to your surgeon, you will not feel any pain.A small incision is made in the eye and the vitreous gel is carefully removed and replaced with a saline solution before the incision is closed. Once the staff feel confident you are ready, you can go home. You will not be able to drive and will require someone to take you home and stay with you for at least twenty four hours after the surgery. The instructions from your surgeon will be not to drive, not to overstress your eye and to keep your head at a certain position to
