This treatment analysis video shows a large cloudy floater that does just what your doctor said it would: it drops down out of the way. This is a good outcome, right? Well, not really. This large floater will drop out of the way, but with even minor eye movements or head movements it moves up and will intermittently block or significantly distort this floater-sufferers vision especially in brighter ambient light where their pupil will naturally get smaller. The problem with this particular situation is that when the floater moves up it basically slides along and is almost touching the natural crystalline lens inside the eye. This is a location much too close to the lens to safely treat with the laser for the risk of causing a cataract during treatment. This is a particularly frustrating situation as the patient is highly motivated to do something and I, the floater doctor, have to make good and safe decisions.
This is the first described use of a mirror or to redirect the laser energy out into the far periphery, in this case the lower portion of the vitreous which is out of direct targeting reach, but with the mirror I can get energy on the floater and start breaking it up. This is a highly advanced technique and the results of treating thousands of patients environment laser multiple, multiple millions of times. There is no teaching, training, or certification for the use of the laser entreating eye floaters. My usual caveat applies which is to choose your floater treatment Dr. carefully. Just because he or she bought a YAG laser means absolutely nothing as to their skill level andcompetence especially with treating the difficult ones. The truth is, I rarely get the simple or easy ones and the majority of the treatments I do are relatively complex.

The Floater Doctor, James H. Johnson M.D. is Medical Director of the only medical practice in the world specializing in, and exclusively treating bothersome spots, shadows, and clouds that affect your vision. Although common, especially changes such as posterior vitreous detachment (PVDs) as we age, these vitreous eye floaters are rarely offered treatment by your local and well qualified eye care providers, even at top specialty institutions. Dr. Johnson uses a specialized FDA-approved YAG laser to vaporize and destroy the proteins in the vitreous that are responsible for your spots, shadows, and moving blurred areas in your vision. He has been doing so since 2007 making him one of, if not the most experienced in this very specialty niche area in ophthalmology, a pioneer in this field.

and apparently such a condition is considered by many research scientists and ophthalmologists to be insignificant :( i really pray that the research for better treatment is expedited to prevent ongoing and future suffering :( i just want to live my life again, and as a student good lord im hoping for a miracle.
If you are a student..that is, a younger floater-sufferer then you should consider low dose atropine drops for symptomatic relief.
This is AWESOME! What a great invention. I hope it will be in general use for all ophthalmologists soon.
It works. I'm sitting in his chair right now doing a 4th treatment. Highly recommended.
How much it improve, does it remove your 80% floaters?
@@ryanthodyfirmansyah2791 Yes. In one or two treatments the doctor will be able to permanently remove the majority of the floaters with no pain no recovery except for eyes to construct back to normal in a few hours. I guarantee you my friend my eyes are much much better.
@@wavesofartsandiego825 thanks for your advice man, will tried it in a few months
@@wavesofartsandiego825 where is this place?
@@wavesofartsandiego825 how much did it cost ?
Really fantastic !
I do enjoy your soft voice, and the acknowledgement of these floaters as *unacceptable*. They create misery, and my quality of life was enhanced 10 fold after l had Weiss rings removed from each eye within a year of each other, but l had FOV vitrectomies. I'm seeing details l haven't seen in two decades now that my vision isn't occluded. I'm interested to know why you prefer doing the laser vs vitrectomy. Pre-Weiss rings, my floaters were still a hindrance and I'm glad to be rid of it all - though l do understand some floaters will reoccur. Thx.
I will recommend the vitrectomy occasionally. It can be an excellent procedure. But it is more invasive and has a high rate of causing cataracts. Many people come to me already aware of that option, but really would like to avoid it if at all possible.
It is just great that you are trying to find solutiom to this terrible eye disease
It's not a disease. Floaters are part of aging. Don't wait. Get it done.
I am only 21 year and I have many floater
Splash water on the eye(s) 3-4 times at one go and tilt your head back after each splash. Do this everyday and your eye floaters will minimize. Try it!
Don't listen to Jeannie. Bless her heart, though, she means well.
Really? Hahahaha 😂
She's trolling. eye floaters are located inside your eyeball. So splashing water on it will literally do nothing.
@@mckinnon0 Lol. She may mean well - how kind of the doc to frame it that way - but someone may be disappointed. At least the "advice" was benign.
An excellent video. I had cataract surgery and the ophthalmologist that performed it put a techni synergy lens in my eye and I never could see near mid or four and the and the glare was terrible. I asked him if I had floaters and he said no. The doctor waited three months and explanted the synergy lens and put a standard lens in by Bausch and Lomb Sofport. I have been seeing cloudy and blurry for months now. When I had a cataract in my eye I always had this cloudy spot in the way and I would describe it to this doctor and he would tell me I have dry eye with an oil spot. The nanny black specs that I never had and I told him about he told me were blood spots and as you get older you can now see them. Well I never saw that before I had the cataract surgery and the explant.Just to let you know, I am a professional portrait painter that does photo realism and needs to see extremely high end detail and contrast. Well, I went to another doctor that is supposed to be an expert in X planting lenses and he said this to me, you not only have big floaters but they’re in the anterior chamber and it’s called PVD and your vitreous is slightly cloudy. On top of that, you have a slight astigmatism and all of this is the problem. I’m not sure why two doctors did not even see this but I would’ve never given you the first lens as of course you would see blurry at every distance with terrible glare and you would never be able to drive at night especially with tiny pupils. I can’t really drive that well at night right now.He’s now recommending I wait a few months and go for a the track to me. As you can imagine I am so nervous because most people need their eyes the painters really need their eyes especially if they do hyper realism. What are your thoughts on that?
I think it all sounds like a very horrible experience for you. I have a popular video discussing this problem of multifocal lenses. Read through the comments as there are more than a few wishing they had learned about the potential problems inherent to these "premium" lenses. Even with an 'expert', explanting a lens will never be as straightforward as putting in the lens. They just aren't designed for that. You might be able to separate out the two problems: Is your glare and visual complaints static? Or dynamically shifting and moving about? The latter would be attributable to floaters.
@@Thefloaterdoctor1 the last doctor is Steve Safran. He said its PVD with large floater and many attached laterally moving left to right in the anterior chamber of eye. Small pupils, so he said thats a problem seeing. Top that with slightly cloudy vitreous with a slight astigmatism. Very upsetting as he said the inly thing to clear it is a vitrectomy. I am a pro portrait painter and don’t have time for down time. Is this a week recovery or a one year?
Im nervous as this is the 3rd doctor
@@NanciFranceVaz_artisthow did it go ?
@@iamgoldsales4948 it was a turbid vitreous and so I did have a vitrectomy in that I plus in LRI. He then had to do a YAG because the first guy scratched and scuffed the second ones. So, I had three surgeries on it. Very disturbing for someone that’s a professional painter as myself that’s always in this high profile shows. I should’ve gotten a lawyer on this case.
SAFRAN did the other eye last August and that went well. The problem is because I have an astigmatism in both eyes which is not severe, but moderate, I don’t see sharp like I used to when I paint so I have to wear reading glasses and then that corrects it. SAFRAN put a toric prescription for that.
I don’t really like these implants because they aren’t like your own eye. They see clearer as they are b&l single focus. He set the left eye slightly closer because I wanted to be able to use my computer without glasses. It doesn’t really work that well. I still need them if I’m using Photoshop and I need to see clear sharp images from my photos.
If I don’t wear reading glasses and I look at my phone, which I can read somewhat and look up my eye, stay out of focus and blurry for a bit. I guess it would be a strain on the eye, if you’re squinting your eye to see the phone. I feel like my eyes are like how they were 10 years ago and I always wore multifocal contact lenses. I used to go to Dr. Farkas in Manhattan and Dr Resnick was my optometrist and she was great. They always got the prescription right. it’s awful. when a painter has go through stuff like this because we depend on our eyes more than anybody else as that is our profession
ive jus had a cataract done 6 weeks ago,,,the first eye was done a good few months ago with no problems,,but this one ?...i saw red,,,through the bright light .and a very sharp pain jus as she was finishing,,,,,,so 3 days ago,i bent over and when i looked up and all i could see was a blanket of millions of pinhead dots,,and then a large floater,,i went to get checked and its a detached vitreous gel,,the dots were blood.and the large floater is the loose gel?....i wonder if the surgeon has damaged my eye ?now i am fightened of losing my eyesight and cant see very good ,with the large floater,,the doc said theres no cure and ive to go back in 2 weeks to make sure everything ok?....very not good,,feeling not good,,ian from scotland,,,,,,hope you are seeing better,,,,take care
@@NanciFranceVaz_artist
just tell me please how much should i pay for eliminating the stupid floaters?? how much is surgery??
My professional fees are always clearly described in my website. I'm very transparent about this. TheFloaterDoctor.com/fees
I’m curious... does the patient report that the floater moves upward? From my understanding when we see floater movement, it’s usually opposite of the actual movement. Is this true?
Generally, that would be true and the patient usually experiences the shadows moving 'OPPOSITE' of the actual physical movement. There is an exception for floaters that are very anterior (close to the lens up front) as the patient's perceived movement will be the same. The light rays entering the eye 'flip' a few millimeter just behind the lens at what is called the 'nodal point'.
The Floater Doctor (Vitreous Floater Solutions Inc.) Thanks so much. Keep up the great work.
dnt understand. My floaters always draw to the ground or stick to center. I have them in my 23 years. They always go down. That means they actually physical go up? Now I am 33. Had 20/20 vision. But it is wors and worse it is nightmare. I take antidepressants physiotherapist consulting but my live is hell. Couple last year is that bad that I thinking about killing my self. I cannot living like that. My brain cant take it any more. I cant enjoy watching tv games going outside etc. I live in dark all the time.
@Fernando Borjadetoxifying? what is that? some kind of diet and starvation staff? i now have weight around 55kg (120 pounds) height 180sm(5,9ft). Barely take food, and not sleep almost
Fernando Borja has this worked for you? Are you speaking from experience
I have developed eyes floaters since my teen. Its annoying and unbearable. Please advise me how can I get this treatment in Nepal. I am prepared to pay a handsome fee.
I am not aware of anyone with real experience in your part of the world. You might consider low dose atropine. That would be available just about anywhere with a prescription.
From India hi sir
I have used atropine 1% two two drops in my eyes and it's my day 23 still very sensitive to lights even at my home also I have to wear sun glasses while I am writing this message i have wear it please tell me how much more time it takes to recover from it please tell me sir
The books say to expect +/- 14 days of dilation., You are clearly an outlier. I can't answer the question, but it should eventually go back to normal. Did you know Atropine 0.01% is available from the pharmacies in India? Stay away from the 1% !!
Sir I have visited my doctor she says that it take 21 day to go back normal but it's my day 23 should I visit once again
@@arshnoor786ansari6 I think what you should do is never use full strength atropine ever again. I don't know what going back to the doctor will accomplish your body will ne more time, I guess.
Why so many treatments?
You question is not very specific. I am pretty clear in the material on the website that it almost always takes more than one laser treatment. It is low energy, low efficiency, and some floaters are pretty large/extensive. I am often pretty aggressive with my treatments, but it more than one treatment almost always. We have gotten used to 'one and done' procedures in ophthalmology like cataract surgery and LASIK.
how does the laser not hurt or burnt the pupil or eye lense...?
He has explained it in a prior vid, I'll link it to you.
He explains it in the first chapter of this video ruclips.net/video/fUVZUdLCiYE/видео.htmlsi=Hsj0VQ0BLKwvCHwV
@@berastis4431 where is the link...?
read this page: www.thefloaterdoctor.com/the-yag-laser
@@Thefloaterdoctor1 ok thank you...from what i understand is the laser is very effective on Weiss Ring...correct me if i am wrong...if the Weiss Ring is too near the pupil or too far back to the back of the eye...then these candidates may not be suitable...so my take is if the Weiss Ring is somewhere in the middle...then it should be suitable...am i right in that sense...?
Wow this floater was disgusting...
Could you maybe do if patient is laying down?
