What do floating wavy things in the eye indicate?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

The red wavy lines are blood vessels that are present in all eyes and are important for the survival of the eye. These vessels provide nutrition to the eyes so do not worry about them. Regarding the dots, I am not very sure which dot are you referring to but I think you are talking about a small white bright dot on the cornea (black portion of the eye). This white dot is a reflection of some light source. It does not look pathological. When we try to examine the eye with light we will see its reflection just like when we flash a torch light on a mirror. Please do not worry. Everything is fine. Thank you for consulting me. Feel free to ask anything.

Thank you.

Hello,

Glad to have you back!

I am here to help you get the best medical advice.

I carefully reviewed that video multiple times and yes, I could see that moving thing on close observation. That is nothing but tear film. When we blink it spreads the tear which covers the cornea. Our upper lid moves from up to down and so the whole tear film gets accumulated close to the lower lid and when we open the eye, the tear film moves from down to up along with the lid. This is a natural phenomenon. Asteroid hyalosis is present in the posterior segment of the eye and these are harmless. You cannot click them with the camera and you cannot see the asteroid. Any foreign body in the eye will cause redness, pain, irritation, and watering. As you are asymptomatic, so there are no foreign bodies there. I am happy to help you and will always be available whenever you need me.
