Floaters are common I was informed by a retinol specialist. The problem arises in the location of the floaters. I have one in the center of my cornea.
Im also a contact lens wearer. I find when I don't pay much attention to it im ok and my vision is ok.
I guess ive just learned to live with my symptoms.
I have taken Areds 2 for about 5 years now and I think it has helped to stabilize my macular issue.
I am 65.

Is it recent that you saw a retina specialist? If not, I would offer this suggestion…
If your center of cornea “floater” is stationary rather than truly floating, ie, it’s not moving around in your visual field, then you should see a retina specialist asap. This can be a symptom of active wet or dry AMD. If it is wet AMD there is treatment you would want to start immediately. When you make your appointment describe to them what your symptom is - that may help you get in sooner.
I have wet and dry AMD and am just drawing on my own experience. Good luck!
