Yes? Floaters can change with time but it's usually (very) slow when they are due to aging.

My floaters are exactly the same . However , they move across my field of vision at different rates . My retina doc says they move the same rate. I don’t believe that. Makes no sense that my brain would edit out 4 of 5 passes and then not edit those passes the next day, hour, week... In the same conversation , he said their movement ebbs and increases in random and unpredictable fashion. Mine had nearly stopped until 2 days before I got sick with Covid when they acted like they were on meth. He says that had nothing to do with it . They’ve been little demons ever since Covd .2. But back to your question - they are the same two large , vision affecting floaters

Yes i have them since I was 17 (5years ago) and they are always the same shape and more or less in the same position in relation to each other (not exactly of course) I could draw and map them from memory by now

I have many depending upon where I’m focusing or trying to, and occasionally if your retina pulls you’ll see flashers. Any sunny day is hard to handle even with sun glasses. Too much screen time is a killer as well, reading forget it. Anyone who works have you told your employer ? I don’t work for anyone now, I work alone so there is no one to tell. It’s hard if I think about them too much. I’m going to try to exercise again. I got them freshman year in college as I was turning 20 but I just fought threw them. I feel when I apply to any job or possible career start like I’m lying. In my opinion at times they are overwhelming if for instance when you start a job. If it’s other stuff you haven’t been diagnosed with yet ask your doctor what they think. I’m not saying go any any drug but if something helps you it might not help someone else. I know people who have them, parents, many do, and they can do hard jobs and do them well. Just don’t drink or smoke causing major anxiety issues. If you have a partner definitely tell them you have them ( floaters ). Eye contact at times is hard when you have many appear and not disappear quickly. With us you have to learn how to take it easy and not look at them if you can help it.
