Visual floaters are tiny spots, threads, or cobweb-like shapes that appear to drift across your field of vision. They are caused by small imperfections or clumps within the vitreous humor of the eye, casting shadows on the retina. While usually harmless and common, especially with aging, sudden increases in floaters or flashing lights can signal serious eye conditions requiring medical attention.
