Patient's question:
I've been feeling like there are always two small black spots floating around when I look at things these days. They are more noticeable in bright light or sunlight.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Based on your description, it is suspected to be muscae volitantes (flying spots). The patient may see black spots floating in front of their eyes, which move with the movement of the eyeballs, resembling flying insects. The shapes can vary, including circular, elliptical, point-like, and linear. Commonly, it is more noticeable when the patient looks at bright backgrounds such as a blue sky or a white wall.Advice: Physiological muscae volitantes usually does not require treatment. Proper rest and avoiding fatigue can help recover. Pathological cases are often caused by moderate to high myopia, internal eye bleeding, inflammation, etc. Generally, these causes can be identified through simple examinations, and treatment targeting the underlying cause is necessary for recovery.
