There is a black shadow fluttering in front of me, which is likely to be floaters' disease, clinically called vitreous opacity. Vitreous opacity refers to the presence of small black shadows or spotty, sheet like, or rope like floating objects in front of your eyes, like the flying shadows of mosquitoes and flies. It is more obvious when you look at the white background, sometimes accompanied by a flash. Vitreous opacity can be divided into physiological and pathological. Physiological vitreous opacity refers to the floating black shadow in front of normal people when they look at an object or blue sky. During ophthalmic examination, there is no disease and no special treatment is required. Pathological vitreous opacity refers to the sudden appearance of floating objects or floating objects in the affected eye, sudden increase or fixed shadow blocking in front of the eyes, or even central vision decline, which is common in retinal vascular rupture, retinal holes, vitreous inflammation, etc. The above suggestions are to go to the ophthalmology department to determine the cause and treatment.
