floaters

I've been experiencing this for some time now... I can see things floating in my field of view. It is easy to spot in bright conditions. If I look a solid, consistent, bright object—a cloudless blue sky for example—I can see out-of-focus shapes drifting and floating.

Some searching on the internet allayed my concerns. "Floaters," bits of protein suspended in the vitreous humour, are common as people age.

I'll ask my eye doctor to verify everything is nominal for me...
