I havent noticed any myself for a few years but as a kid I sure did.
ha, yeah, sciencey stuff always interested me, still does usually.

I have a jillion of em, too - along with the crickets in my ears. I guess I'll be free of them when I'm in the ground.

Better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!

I have several, but they don't cause me any grief.

Ha! Butch I remember a looooooooooong time ago, you started a thread about floaters. The old Treehouse, maybe AS..........

I like them. Gives me something to focus on in the dentist chair.

I wonder how they snapped that photo?

 

[Hobby Climber]

Its been a long time since I've notice them. I thought it was simply some very very small particals of dust on the surface of the eye. Always went away after a moment or two!

Cool link MB.

Just frikkin great, now I can't stop focusing on mine......

I had a friend growing up who's father was a total space cadet. He had lost his mind in Viet Nam, and was convinced that floaters were actually aliens called 'atlantians'. He recently retired from the US Postal service. True story.

I thought they were broken blood vessels, and before that when I was just a wee lad, I thought they were little worms. I think my older brother told me that.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I wonder how they snapped that photo?

Probably an artist's rendering.

 

[NeTree]

Pretty damn good rendering, I'll tell ya.
