I had a huge floater due to a retina tear. I ate half a pineapple for two weeks and the huge floater has dissolved significantly. It’s true!!!!
Awesome!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Sorry my enhlısh not good 1 pine apple 2 day you eat iş it true
Just try eating a little bit a day.
Thanks
And then you got diabetes.
Yes they do, I had a dark lines and dots in my vision. Eating pineapple every day for three months and it's all cleared up.
I also having this problem . Can you talk me about that
@sajin2821 is exactly the same problem here, but I have not tried pineapples yet
Really is that true ?
I have suffered from eye floaters for the last 30 years. For the last five years it got worse and even if it´s not dangerous it can be really annoying. One year ago I started with intermittent fasting mixed with longer periods (3-4 days) of water fasting and now my floaters are are almost completely gone :) When your body enters the state of autophagy it actually starts repairing itself, incredible.
Hi can you please tell me exactly what did you do? Did you take any suppliments?
Bro thats great is that was true?
Just by fasting
@@Thisfutureman are you asking??
Btw Ramadan is coming up so I don't have to specifically fast, it's a win win
@@Kashmiri_Separatistbe aware drink water , fasting with hydration is different
Yes fresh pineapple and pineapple juice works for me, after years of floaters started on pineapple a couple of years ago after reading that it contains an enzyme and they went away.
Thanks 4 comment ❤
Did you had clear floaters like I do?
After how many months aprox. have you noticed them being gone?
I just want to share my experience with others, in my case I started to see a lot of floters at once, I guess it is because I use a lot the confocal microscope. I went to the Dr. He said that my retina is fine as well as my vitrous, which is fine because when I was a kid I lost my left vision because of an accident. I started to eat 300 grams of pineapple every day in the morning before breakfast, and after four weeks I noticed that 60% of the floters are gone thanks to God. I am Christian soy I believe in miracles as well, then when I went to visit the Dr. He was surprised that my vistreous is quite clear now. ❤❤
By His stripes we are healed. Isaiah 53v5. Oh brother thank you forsharing your faith and miracle of healing. I am seeing floaters in my eyes.i didnt even know what they are called before. I will stand upon the promises of God soon i will share my testimony. God made pineapples. I will eat them, too. God bless this video and your testimony.
@@padmaizekor6947did it work ?
brother pls share your whatsapp nmber and email address.. I am one eyed and facing same problems.
Can bromeliad damage the vitreous itself? I’m so worried about that
Amén
I was diagnosed with PVD three weeks ago. I have a ring floater. Started taking 500 mg of Bromelain once a day and I would say the floater is half way gone. It’s no longer that noticeable! I had a hard time reading the first week. Incidentally, I learned that Bromelain could help before seeing the eye doctor, so I asked her if there was any supplements that could help with this and she said no, there’s not. Glad I’m a DIY kind of guy and saw your video.
Thanks for this! My retinologist has been watching my eye health due to PVD as well. Floaters has gotten worse, and they told me also NOTHING could be done. I just had to learn how to live with them.....easier said than done. Especially when your work is on the computer. Will give this a go! 🙏🏽
Did you try it yet?
@@adduckzdid it work ??

What is the name of supplement ma'am
I heard about pineapple and Floaters a few weeks ago. I have been eating one slice of pineapple per day since then and my floaters have reduced to one barely noticeable floater in each eye. So for me, they work.
Thanks for sharing
@@kentClimber qqqq
How many pineapples do you eat ?
@@MADOUT_VPS just one slice per day. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to keep eating a slice per day or stop when the floaters go. But I like pineapple anyway, so I will keep eating it. It makes a big difference to the floaters.

For everyone who has eye floaters and are currently in panic: keep on reading.
I first encountered floaters when I was about 19 but somehow they moved out of my field of vision, then at 27 I suddenly had a bunch of them. At that time I also had bad anxiety, stress etc and I couldn’t stop looking for the floaters that it became a daily obsession. But: I overcame it. It WILL get better! Try to find the core of where the anxiety comes from, maybe with a little more help like therapy or someone you trust to talk to. Strangely, I still have floaters but I barely notice them because I’m not scared of them anymore. The mind can be a powerful ally or your biggest enemy. If I can do it, you can do it too!
I’m in a similar boat to you - massive onset all of a sudden from stress and eye strain. I like your advice - lot of people say you willl get used to them. They do become less obvious over time :)
@@thatmatty231guyWhat about me I have since few days a big floater it looks like a spider and it is almost at the center of my sight. I am hopeless abd no brain can ignore it. 😢
@@haralbi I have a similar one in the centre too - it’s not massive but still very annoying, can you see it much in darker rooms or just in sunlight? You should try the pineapple trick, I’m going to try it and see if it helps. Also you can try eye supplements like Lutein as well
@@thatmatty231guy I was also prescribed a mix of Lutein, Zeaksantin and some other vitamins, the doctor said it might be beneficial for eye health, but regarding floaters he said that either I will get lucky and the floater will be displaced form the center of the sight or brain will get used to ignore it. That's why I don't think pineapple can help. Vy the way I can see it especially in the lighter environments or rooms but it is there even if i close my eyes although just like a shadow.
Will it go when anxiety got recovered?
Unrelated to eye floaters (although I think mine may have started to melt away) I had a nurse recommend bromelain supplements to be because allergy medicines have stopped work. I've noticed in the last week or so, that I do seem to have less eye floaters than I did before. It seems that this video connected the dots for me. Thank you! 🥰
Can you say bromeiıan name pls
how much bromelain do you take?
Excellent video, i wish I'd seen this video before I'd had surgery. Thank you.
Oh wow!! Very cool.
Happy holidays Dr. Rupa--best to you and yours.
Same to you! Thank you!
I really appreciate how your explanations are very easy to understand. Please do a video on AMD..thanks
Thank you, Franny! Will do!
Great Vlog, Thank you Dr. Rupa sharing knowledge❤❤❤❤
My pleasure 😊
Regarding the side effect with tetracyclines.
Bromelain acts against biofilms hence prevents antibiotic resistance
Bromelain acting against biofilms etc potentiates the antibiotic so requires less antibiotic to be effective.
I have been taking bromelain with minocycline many year for osteoarthritis.
Thanks Doctor Ruba for explaining about the eyes and it's benefit.
I'm so glad to help! Thank you for watching!
I tried it some time back, but didn't see any help. I also triedied bromalein as a supplement. Not sure if the pineapple or bromalein will disolve collagen in other parts of the body? Please clarify.
God bless you ! Thanks for the information.:)
Like the channel, new here from SE Texas, I have a question, is "Can-C" effective on dissolving cataracts?
Great video, been wondering about this since I have many floaters!
I'm also curious about possible cures for amblyopia. I heard about a recent study in Finland where they tried to see if SSRI medication would increase neuroplasticity and therefore help normalize the amblyopic eye. I think they didn't get it to work though.
Once the brain reaches maturity, treatments (to date) have been unsuccessful in improving vision in amblyopic eyes.
You make the best videos. Another excellent one. I took Bromaline years ago for arthritic knees, and it really did help me, but then I did develop an allergic sensitivity and had to back off.
Thank you so much, Bonnie! I'm glad this was helpful. :)
I takes 100 mg a day of Bromeliad and it helps reduce small floaters.
2:27 "and what they found is that eating floaters seemed to be associated with a decrease in the number of floaters.". yes, this does seem to make sense in a fun way!
I caught that too 😂
I immediately stopped it and went back to see if I misheard it.
Thank you endlessly Dr. Wong, a great contribution !!
Normally natural remedies have no side effects, habe to try it ..!!
So glad to help!
thank you for the effort!! the title is understandably misleading because its a common issue of concern and many are interested.
It's not only you but almost every eye doctor did the same thing.
ALOHA AND THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS AMAZING VIDEO ❤
Thanks so much I needed this
Thank you for sharing.
I got my 1st floater at age 12 and the eye doctor explained what it was and assured me that by the time I was in my 50's it would settle out of my line of vision and I would no longer see it. Well, over the years I developed more of them in both eyes and now, at 65 I have about 6 in my left eye and 3 in my right making it hard to see as I have to wait for them to float by when trying to look at something close. (Each one is surrounded by a border that is opaque.) I will try the Bromelain to see if that helps so, thank you. I have always wondered why there is not a treatment where the eye fluid is pumped out and sent through a filter then back into the eye (sort of like dialysis) to eliminate these things? It seems to me this type of procedure would not be hard to do and would be very effective but then, of course, I am not a Doctor so I really have no idea. Thank you for the info about Bromelain, I will look around for some supplements and see if that has any positive effects.
There is a surgery called vitrectomy that takes out the jelly part of the eye (vitreous). It's not without risks such as retinal detachment and endophthalmitis (sight-threatening infection inside the eye). This type of surgery is done by a retinal specialist in severe cases of floaters.
There is a treatment for floaters. Its called a vitrectomy surgery. They can also do a vitrectomy with laser to obliterate the larger floaters.
Please let me know how it works for you
Did it work ?
@@mijalitt315 I cant tell as the doc says I have cataracts and need to have them removed. Then, I should see if they improved or not. In the meantime, I am traveling The US in my van for the next few years and I have run out of those tablets and will have to find some more the road somewhere. Last ones I got on Amazon but I cant get them shipped to me out here, ha ha.
Thank you for that great I formation, gonna try Bromélaïne supplement !
Are you aware of any studies or breakthrough in the potential cure of cataract ? I heard of lutein or others molecules under test but don’t know what are the latest news !
Thank you for sharing
Hi dear doctor . Can you please tell me how much per day is recommended to start taking the supplement capsule.
I am at the height of despair and depression caused by these floaters, but after seeing your clip, I became hopeful, I wish it would have an effect on me. Thank you for your efforts, dear doctor.🌹
Well, I moved to Thailand and have been eating a fresh pineapple from the local market everyday for the past three months. It’s done ZERO to improve my eye floaters. I’m also in perfect physical health.
So sorry! Thank you for sharing that feedback!
Have you recovered my friend?
@@essa1292 No, I still have them but my mind is adjusting to them and I don’t even notice them most days. Thanks for asking. Best wishes.
@Lee Jones Yea not surprising, the single study she references isn't even controlled let alone double blind. Can't really base a medical recommendation on such sparse evidence
I have also from last three years. It’s very annoying.
I have just watched your video and you said check that the medication you are on. I do not take any medication for any thing so what do you suggest i do?
That would be interesting, since I have eye floaters for more than 55 years and I always thought I was the only one having trouble with that. I love pineapple (or ananas as it is known over here) and I still have eye floaters. Especially in summer it's worst, since the abundance of light makes them easily visible. You're talking about people with 1, 2 or 3 floaters? I have many more.
By the way I recently visited an eye doctor and she said that we're seeing the shadow of the floaters, not the floaters themselves. I never knew that. Sometimes when you're looking into the far at night and towards a light in the distance and you squint your eyes you can see the form of the floaters quite clear. So I'm wondering if they are part see through.
Oh question: does it need to be fresh pineapple or can it also be pineapple in those little cans?
Thanks for the video 👍
What a great video, thank you Dr Rupa. Sugar is harmful to me, I have a neuro sensitivity, which is probably what caused my floaters in the first place. Do you recommend any Bromelain supplement brand?
I'm so glad this was helpful. As long as you check the ingredients and it contains bromelain, it should be adequate. Let me know how it works if you try it out!
Thank You Dr Rupa Wong. For your useful information...Noted! Love and Blessings from South Africa Amen 🙏 ❤️
You're so welcome!!
But what about collagen in cartilage? Will bromelain break down our joints?
Wow great explanation and fascinating information. I have had floaters for several years but I am young and it happened when I was a hair stylist and a bottle containing just mixed hair color in a syringe type bottle with almost a hydraulic mechanism that suddenly exploded and the color went in my eyes. I promptly rinsed it but my eyes got irritated and sticky after and I got antibiotic eye drops to treat it. It worked great but after several days floaters appeared. It is not clear whether they are just ordinary floaters or possible corneal scarring from the trauma. Would bromelain still work for something like that ?
I am suffering from floaters but visited Indian Himalayas and got some natural medicine, and floaters vanished
How many mg of bromelain should i take? And what brand do you recommend??
I’ve had a chesty cough for a month after getting a virus, recently I have got a mass of floaters like webs in my right eye and have been getting flashes in the corner of the same eye.
I went to the hospital and they checked it out, the retina was not detached and the specialist said that the floaters would settle down eventually. I am 57 years old could this be something to do with the virus I had or the cough I have or is it just because I am old? Either way would it be beneficial for me to start eating either pineapple or the supplement?
Thanks, Doc.
Very nice thanks Dr,
Thank you doc.🙏🏽
Pineapple and Bromelain are indeed intriguing options for managing eye floaters with their low-risk profile. Unless there are specific contraindications, considering this natural intervention seems like a reasonable step to explore. Very interesting!
Agree! Thanks for being here!
But it will cause vitreous synergy and there will be fluid movement all over the eyes. It will seem like you are looking through a clear tape or cellophane and floaters swimming everywhere. I wish there are research on how to thicken the vitreous humor because i am 31 and currently experiencing this. @@DrRupaWong
Thanks so much for this video. Interestingly, pineapple has been in my daily morning diet. So I have noticed floaters for the past week but they are not only clear, they are also black dots and some seem attached to small pieces of tissue, all manly concentrated on the left side of my eye. Why so many black dots?
Thanks for this video. I have been a victim of Eye floaters since my Laser Eye treatment (2012). Got used to the crappy vision since then. Your method looks promising . Will definitely try it . God bless you.
😊I will be glad if you tell me your result
How did it go? Please share your experience
Thank you Dr. Wong. Hope you are well in HI. After my Cataract surgery I developed floaters and the glare of lights (at night) became 300% worse. Any thoughts?

Dr. Rupa is a real beauty 😍
Great post, thank you. I will try it (with organic pineapple ...if I can find it). Concerned with the genetic modification of pineapple (and most other natural food crops). Big ag/pharma are taking out whats good and trying to put in things to make you sick. (BT in many fruits and veggies... gives gut issues, HIV put into corn). Also, pineapple is heavily sprayed with pesticides. Are you allergic to the pineapple or the pesticides? Lastly, does the bromeline breakdown collegen in joints ... and GIVE joint pain? I suppose like everything there is a happy balance. Thanks again.
I have heard this before and try to incorporate pineapple into our daily diet. We usually use the bags of frozen pineapple, no syrup or liquid. I do think it helps with floaters.
Thanks for letting me know! Added bonus: it is yummy! 😋
Plz comment the supplement🙏🙏
I was bed ridden w/gout, if I eat pineapple every day no attacks,
If I eat ketchup or tomatoes I won't be able to walk in a week. So I buy whole pineapples, turn upside down on counter
They ripped backwards, if you cut too
early they leave a metallic taste in you mouth, that's why people are thrown off
@@michaellittle6248 y
You know I started making green smoothies on and off, and I add pineapple.. and now that you mention it, my floaters aren’t as bad as they used to be.
Can we have the name of the literature where you get your information from?
what brand is the best to use
Can you please explain this. If pineapple breaks down collagen does it affect our faces as well? Scary thought……
"Bromelain" is good for digestive issues as well!
Hello
Best time to take supplement
How much?
Thanks
I have another question regarding this topic: Not ony do we not know if any Bromelain gets to the eye, but does it end up in your blood and metabolism at all? Does it even get resorbed by the gut? Enzymes are proteines and large proteins get broken down into peptides and aminoacids by the proteases in the stomach and denatured by the stomach acids. Which is a problem with many oral supplements snd medicatuons, right? So: is there any reason to believe, that any Bromelain stays intact and gets into your cells by just eating pineapple? I don't find it plausible.
Also, als ypu said: we need collagen in so many tissues all throughout the body. Wouldn't a medication that just breaks down collagen also do a great deal of harm and wouldnt it be indifferent to where it breaks down the collagen? How and why would it go specifically to the eye (and attack specifically the floaters there) and not everwhere else?
To me this research seems like whishful, magical thinking after just hearing two pieces ofninformatiin without knowing the conplexities around it.
Great info, thanks...
Glad it was helpful!😊
I have diabetic retinopathy which caused a detached retina in my right eye. Doctor waited too long to fix so now I am partially blind in that eye. My left recently had a bleed so I have an appt soon to get the gel removed and veins lasered.
I'm so sorry you are dealing with this condition. I hope the treatment helps!
Good to know. Thanks .
btw was there a mention of which bromelaine supplement to try out?
Omg!!!! Thank you sooo much!!! This arrived right on time!! I’ll start this week.
Hows it been so far
Did it help
So far so good. I’ve noticed a huge improvement. I put the pineapple in a smoothie I drink daily. I’m going to start eating them separately this week.
I'm glad this is helping you, Dree. Thanks for sharing!
Did they disappear?
What about creating a reduction liquid from the pinaple core and put it directly into your eyes? I do have 3 floaters which I really hate
I am 45, and I have a history of vision problems. I am extremely nearsighted, and I have astigmatism. I had to have a shot of Avastin in one eye at 30 years of age to stop new blood vessel growth. This caused some partial vision loss in that eye. I developed a huge floater in the other eye almost a year ago, and it is really bothersome. I’d love to know any ways to care for my eye health and preserve what vision I have left.
I am in the same boat as you except I had Lucentis as the treatment for my CNV. I then began taking bilberry, high dosage lutein /zeathaxin and astaxathin and now has less floaters.
What’s a good mg to start with?
So we need to eaet collagen with bromelain ? or just bromelain?
Spent a lot of money on a faiir few bromelain tablet packets (£7 a packet) over a few months, didn't do squat, still got annoying floaters.
Do the bromelain supplements have bad interactions with all blood thinners or just the one you mentioned? My mom has issues with floaters so I wanted to suggest she try bromelain but I believe she's on Xarelto. Either way she should probably double check with her doctor first I know.
Bromelain could cause the risk of bleeding so definitely check in with the doctor, as you said. Thank you for watching! Let me know if she tries it out.
just curious, since the eyes have small amount of collagen in them, if you are taking collagen supplements will this help or make floaters worse?
Fantastic question - it actually hasn't been studied but anecdotally I haven't heard this from my patients
My mother has cholesterol in her eyes.plz can you give remedies for that problem.tks in advance
Hello Doc! May i ask if eating pineapples a day can affect my maintenance for my hypertension? Thank you.
Q for the Doctor: if bromelain digests collagen would it reduce collagen in the body like around joints?
My worry too.
Also my question.
And so far...no answer.😢
@@frankyancy1347 Respectfully, she doesn't do scientific studies. Any answer would be speculation. I'd suggest googling for studies of pineapple on other maladies
It most likely has something to do with the surface area of the collagen and/or the matrix medium the collagen is in. Such that in the eye the less "dense" form of collagen is more easily acted upon.
Thank you for this very interesting video.
I’ve heard that UV rays from the sun can cause cataracts. Is it also important to avoid the sun if you are at risk for glaucoma and macular degeneration? If so, to what extent? Can one go without sunglasses on a cloudy day or is it necessary to be vigilant all the time?

I recently had a vitreous separation and as a result developed a Weiss ring floater. Have you ever had a patient successfully get rid of floaters (specifically the Weiss ring floater) by consuming pineapple? If so, was this actually verified by you, the ophthalmologist, or merely self reported by the patient. I so want to believe this can be a cure. Thank you!

For sure! I spoke to my surgeon optometrist who took pics of the eye, retina is still attached thankfully, they are saying floaters are common after a buckle/cryo and laser so I guess I wait and see. Thanks everyone ☺️
Would pineapple ..bromaline help the same way with cataracts too? Thank you
I am guessing that the pineapple must be raw and not canned. My floaters are black and mostly in the left eye and sometimes so thick it is like looking through shrubbery! I am putting pineapple on my shopping list, thank you for your upbeat and informative videos!

I’ve lived in SE Asia for 20 years and eat fresh pineapple every morning for breakfast. I’ve had floaters in my eyes since I was 13. I’m now 66. My floaters have increased in number.
So sorry. Thank you for sharing that with us, Michael. I hope for a cure for all one day!
When they finally do the study where they inject real pineapple juice into the eyeball, I will be first on line. I hate floaters.
Haha. Good idea! Seriously though, floaters are really awful. I'm sorry you suffer from them.
@@DrRupaWong Thank you for yor videos, and, Aloha!
@@gregsmarth3581 Thank you for being here!! Aloha!
I've also heard that eating blueberries or taking a Lutein supplement could help with this, but I didn't notice any difference after several months.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us! I'm sorry it didn't work out for you.
here is a question. i keep hearing as you get older i will be 50 in a year. that you should start taking more collegen suppliments. i have not yet. but would that be counter to tking something that breaks it down?
Hello Dr. Rupa, do floaters stay in one place?
Wow...where I'm working they serve pineapple almost every morning and I've been eating it. I hadn't even noticed that my floaters had reduced until I ran across this video.
You should get better results with unprocessed pineapple.
Do you know if your workplace dinner is using processed or unprocessed pineapple?
I will do it. Had floaters for years.
Let me know if it helps!
Thanks for the informative video. Pretty sure I just got my first floater myself a few days ago. Age 36. It's barely, barely there, but since I draw a lot on white paper, I see it sometimes. Had an eye exam, and I'm pretty much fine in terms of more serious issues. So I guess it's just age. I can probably learn to ignore it over time, but maybe I'll try adding some pineapples to my breakfast routine a few days out of the week. Worth a shot.
It is not age friend. You are young. 36? Lol. At that age I considered myself as a youngster.
Hmmmmm….. going to try this. Have had floaters since I was a teen. Then I had a bad head injury last year and noticed a huge floater in my right eye. Going to try this to see if it works.
I have a large floater, I've had it for a couple of years now. Optician said they some times go away on their own, this one hasn't. There is no other option. I am going to try this, I'll keep you posted. 29/05/2024.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is supposed to be good for floaters. I've used it on and off for months and see a bit of improvement. It can be used internally as well as drops. The stronger conectrations burns/stings like strong salt water (think of ocean water times 2!). but they now make weaker concentration drops online as well. What research/thoughts about MSM Doc?
If im not mistaken, MSM used to be dry eye right? Is it really work for floaters as well? Did the oral MSM also give the result same as the drop one?
Thanks for bringing this up, Hal! I will work on a video about MSM. Make sure you are subscribed and click the bell so you will see when I post it.
@@ChocoKupo I have not seen any improvements with the oral. but also cannot conclude that since only used oral sporadically
@@DrRupaWong Thanks!
I heard some people that go raw eventually have their eye color change back to when they were a kid. I wonder if it gets rid of floaters also.
Interesting!! I wouldn't be surprised if it did help some. Food is so important. I have a done a video here on foods that help vision - ruclips.net/video/zShTaM9JMLc/видео.html
@@DrRupaWong mam what should I do if I have a white spot in my left lacrimal caruncle?
I have swirls in my eyes not just particles. I wonder if anything will help this?
If you break down collagen, wont you have skin changes?
