Eye Floaters Destruction in Single Painless Treatment - YAG Laser

Published 2021-07-28
Dave walked in to my office with this beautiful and classic Weiss Ring Floater. I had already treated his other eye in 2018 so he traveled halfway across the country to get this floater treated with me again.
Not all of my treatments are so straightforward. In fact, I am used to treating much more complicated and extensive vitreous floater issues, so it is a pleasure to treat such a classic floater with even more confidence as to what I can accomplish in just one 15-20 minute, painless, rapid-recovery, no-restrictions-on-activity-afterwards kind of a treatment.

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.

    Greetings doctor, it is very impressive to be doing this for 16 years, congratulations. With such success, it seems publication, scientific process, patent, peer review, fda approval etc could codify your legacy for all time. Indeed mainstream would make it comfortable to so many ppl to see better on an exponential basis, just imo. Thanks and all the best with your private success. Cheers!

    I got lots of floaters after my smile surgery this looks so satisfying
  • I have been told that my floaters cannot be improved. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and providing hope for those suffering with this difficulty. You’re a blessing 🌸🌺🌹
  • I had a big "cloud floater" zapped by this doctor many years ago. I was and am very happy with the result. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

    I was hoping to maybe one day go save enough and get treatment for my floaters in socal but once the office moved to Texas i gave up since it was too far . Eye floaters are quite annoying but I just try my best to live with them. I am happy for everyone else though who was able to get it done since I know eye floaters sometimes makes me feel more tired.

    Hello Dr. Johnson. I had two Alcon Vivity EDOF (extended depth of focus) IOLs implanted a month ago and am now experiencing a large and very bothersome floater in my dominant (distance) eye. My optometrist said that the floater is due to PVD (posterior vitreous detachment) in that eye. She confirmed it's a Weiss Ring, and said that I'll likely get used to in time. I find that hard to believe. Does having an EDOF IOL make removing the floater with a YAG laser difficult or impossible? If not, do you think I should wait before seeking treatment? I live in the Chicago area.
  • Hello doctor! Beautiful treatment right there. I am a younger patient, but with a high myopia of 9-10 diopters. Is there any way to get my floaters assessed by a local eye doctor prior, to see if it would he adequate for your treatment? I have a ring like floater with tails coming off it, much like the one in this video, but my ‘ring’ is not as dense as the floater visible in this video, and instead has a dark spot on a point of the ring.
  • Hello doctor, I'm a fairly recent sufferer of eye floaters at 37. I developed them in early August I believe and was diagnosed August 15th. It has been incredibly debilitating to have perfectly clear vision only to have what seems like dozens of dots and strings floating around in my vision suddenly. I think I have them in both eyes but much worse in the right one. I've found myself wanting to be in a dark room all the time and scared to look at anything bright or white. This is especially horrific to me because I work on a computer and it's like a snow globe when ever I move my eyes. I have one particular floater in my right eye that appears like a squiggly and dense line. It seems to stay above and to the right sometimes, but it often floats right down into the center of vision and gets "stuck" to the point I can focus on it pretty easily. It's like a crack running along the screen if I'm looking at a white background. Even using dark mode, I can see a distortion running along the text sometimes. As you've mentioned, the opthalmologist I saw simply said "there's nothing that can or should be done. Your brain has a way of dealing with this." I've heard so many different things about floaters shrinking or moving out of sight, but that seems to not be the truth. I've heard others speak of neuroadaptation, but I'm skeptical as to how your brain can "disregard" a squiggly line in the center of your vision. I've lost all ability to function effectively at my job and like I'd be better off wearing a patch over my eye than trying to cope with the distraction. I've infact tried this, but I don't know if it's safe longterm because my right eye takes a long time to refocus after removing the patch. I'm wondering if your atropine solution would offer any relieve, but I don't know if I should try a "wait and see" approach for a few months before attempting it. I feel completely hopeless, but I appreciate that you're at least trying to do something to help.

    Doctor two questions 1. is it possible for hyaluronic acid taken as an oral supplement to reach the vitreous or is it closed off and a total waste of time and money? I'm thinking that HA could be used to prevent new floaters from forming? I know it's unproven but willing to supplement with HA if theoretically possible with nothing to lose. 2. Do you think that laser treatment will be improved to be used on young patients with floaters close to the retina soon like say in the next 10 years (gold-nano particle research) or do you think it will be longer?

    started off with having laser which was a success in terms of correction, but a failure in terms of developing neuralgia which caused me agonizing pain, then came the retinal tears which exhibited themselves as two dark shades at the corner of each eye which resulted in me being unable to tolerate any thing of black color in my peripheral vision ... then came black floaters that are hovering in my peripheral vision which resembles hell times zillion ... so doctor what's your advice?
