This is an old thread, however I started having floaters in February in one of my eyes which are different than the occasional ones I've had probably all my life I've seen my eye Dr and a retinal specialist and both say my eye is fine, but
if I start seeing flashes that could be signs of a potential retinal detachment.
My hematologist doesn't seem to know of any tie in to AA or any of the meds I'm on. Though I do know prednisone can cause some eye issues, this isn't one of the known ones.

To me it's been worse since my ATG treatment 3 weeks ago. I see a lot of tiny tiny round specs, to me they could look like cells. The eye drs said this is normal with aging and these just gather in a gel layer on the eye, but the timing to me is suspicious.

Would love some feedback from others on this.
