Floaters 101
Drifting squiggles are shadows from clumps inside the vitreous gel. Most are benign, but sudden floaters with flashes can signal a tear—get urgent care.
Why They Happen

Natural Approach
Hydrate consistently, stack antioxidants, manage screens with the 20‑20‑20 rule, and add targeted topical support.
