I like seafood. Coincidentally I am sure, I just ate a bunch of lobster and shrimp and fish. I also am unfortunately at the age where eye floaters are an issue. My contacts seem to have caused floaters, sleeping with them in is bad.
Today I have a floater in my eye that looked like a squiggly shape, like a parasite, instead of a round ball. It changed shape after 5 minutes, and after a few more minutes left my field of vision. Kind of funny because my better half randomly told me a month or so ago she read eye floaters are caused by parasites. I can also feel movement, tingling, in the same eye where I determined it was persent. The bastard has to be alive and moving.
So... what can I do that I havn't done already? Can I get this thing and his friends out myself? I already choked down Merck's FenBen and rubbed some around my eye. Something tells me that isn't going to cut it.
Have already contacted my eye doctor, who is of course not open on Saturdays.
I don't think I should go to the ER because why would I see anyone in the field who has been taught that humans don't need to deworm ?

Thank you everyone for your kind thoughtful comments. I am going to look into everything. First getting to the eye doc to see if they see anything visible.
A friend mentioned this to me a couple years ago, haven't had any since. Inexpensive supplement.
Bromelain, an enzyme found in pineapple, has been suggested as a potential treatment for eye floaters due to its ability to break down collagen. Some studies indicate that bromelain, particularly when combined with other fruit enzymes, may help reduce or eliminate floaters by dissolving the collagen that forms them. However, more research is needed, and it's crucial to consult with an eye doctor before trying bromelain supplements or significantly increasing pineapple consumption, as it can interact with medications and certain health conditions.
