Related conditions that can cause floaters
Several underlying conditions can contribute to the development of eye floaters. These include diabetic retinopathy, which can cause bleeding into the vitreous humor; retinal tears or detachment, which can release blood or debris into the vitreous; and macular degeneration, which can lead to the growth of abnormal blood vessels in the eye. It is important to identify and treat these underlying conditions to alleviate floaters.
