Topic: Ophthalmology & Optometry



Expert: Dr Anand Shroff, MD, FICS
Date: 7/1/2008
Subject: shadow on my eye

Question
i have a small shadow on my eyeball, The left one below my pupil and when i look around i see what looks like hair across my vision. Do you have any idea what this could be?- Thanks in advance. Lee

Answer
Hi Lee,

This could be a small floater in the vitreous. It may not be anything to be worried about, but a retinal examination is required to make sure that the retina is normal. Any eye clinic can schedule this appointment for you.

You can however read more on floaters on www.laservision-eyesurgery.com to see if the symptoms fit.

Hope this helps,
Regards,
Dr Shroff
