10 Causes of Eye Floaters
Cause #10: Vitreous Bleeding
The center part of the eye is usually completely clear. It has to be because light needs to be able to pass through it and onto the retina. Surrounding this is the outer part of the eye, and this has numerous blood vessels running through it to supply the eye with what it needs.
If the eye has been damaged somehow, then blood can leak from these vessels and into the vitreous. This can have an impact on our vision as the clear fluid within becomes contaminated. One symptom of this is eye floaters, and it is something that you should get checked as soon as you are able.
