If you’ve ever dealt with floaters, you know how random and distracting they can be. For me, they first popped up after a long day of staring at my laptop. I thought they were just tired eyes — until I noticed they’d get worse anytime my eyes turned red or irritated. Turns out, there’s a…
There’s something uniquely frustrating about trying to focus in a visually overstimulating environment when eye floaters decide to make an appearance.
