Update. Doctor said to go and get looked at straightaway and why did I not go first? Said I thought I needed a referral. Anyway got squeezed in ( light streak in eye got me in quick). An hour and a half later have been told it is the vitreous gel. Apparently it has already happened to my left eye and I never noticed ( showed up on the eye photo thingys ( dont know the machines name). Had these drops put in that made it open your pupils so they can see inside. That was a hoot ( not). Shone more lights into my eyes and checked to see if the "wallpaper" as it is knkwn had not torn away and the retina had not detached. Came back good. He did ask me how many floaters could I see. Left eye none but right eye a few. He said there are more than a few! I go back in about 8 weeks to have more of the same. If it appears to be getting worse will have to have the laser treatment...
Good news really.
Thanks for letting me rave on but I was quite scared. I do have anxiety issues which dont help.
