Years ago my wife got a huge dark floater in her right eye. She was a pro photograpeher for a newspaper and she got a doc to replace the vitreous fluid in that eye under medicare. It got rid of the floater. I actually think she had both eyes done. In my right eye I have a cloudy floater right where I look. It unfocuses things, but I try to get by ignoring it. Current eye doc says it may be treatable with laser, depending on where in the fluid it is. But If I'm going to do that I certainly will get a second opinion from the doc my wife went to.
Yeah, I was a bit concerned about focusing on the monitor. I sit 40-45" away from it, not like lots of people right up at reading distance. It's taken a while but now things are sharper than ever, but I still have to use the tears to wash them out once in a while. I notice distance viewing is always good, looking at the monitor too much is tiring, as is reading.
But I noticed last night looking at the NOAA hourly WX on the phone, I could read the numbers on the graphs, and boy are they tiny numbers.
