Symptom #6: Floaters
Eye floaters are actually quite common. They are the small imperfections you will often see in your field of vision and are often described as string or pod-like structures. They are caused by tiny fibers forming in the vitreous fluid in the eye, causing your vision to become slightly obscured.
Floaters in themselves are not something to be worried about, and the majority of people experience them with no harm done whatsoever. They can be a sign of a potentially serious underlying cause, however, especially if you are experiencing them in greater volumes than usual. If you are unsure either way, it is a good idea to get it checked out.
