Due to its delicate structure, the eye is among the organs that need attention. Sometimes different shapes or moving points may appear in front of the image. It is often overlooked because it is thought to be caused by fatigue or insomnia. However, experts say that frequent encounters with such situations can cause bigger problems, so a doctor should be consulted.
MAY CAUSE MYOPIC FLY FLY
Stating that there may be many factors under the fly flying in the eyes, Op. Dr. Mahmoud Babaei said, “Factors such as nearsightedness, migraine, stress, crying for a long time, spending too much time with the screen, fatigue can cause fly fly in the eye. Anyone who senses floaters and moving spots in front of the eye should immediately consult an eye specialist.” Babaei stated that there are different types of fly fly, “Sometimes you feel very small objects flying in your eye and you are trying to catch them, you notice as if they are stuck on your eyelashes or you can hold them with your hand. This is called fly flying There are different types of these floaters or spots. Small dots, rounds, lines, spots, spider webs, fog spots, etc. Our eye is in the shape of a ball. There is a gel that fills it, this is called vitreous. The cells inside the vitreous or very thin threads stuck together are moving. When this happens, their shadow falls on the retina, that is, the visual layer, and is perceived in the brain.
INCREASES IN THE ELDERLY
Pointing out that floaters are more common in the elderly, Babaei said, “Anyone who feels floaters and moving spots in front of the eyes should immediately consult an ophthalmologist. Moving objects and floaters are generally harmless and may shrink or even disappear over time, or rather the person gets used to them and continues to live together so that treatment is not needed. This situation definitely needs to be examined and evaluated by an ophthalmologist.
CAN BE SEEN IN PEOPLE WHO HAVE COVID
Stating that fly fly disease can be seen in the eyes of those who have Covid disease, Babaei said, “Although it is usually seen in older ages, it can also occur in children and young people. Especially for people who have had a blow to the head and who have had an accident. In the same way, fights, traffic accidents, impacts with a hard object, that is, blows to the eye can also cause floaters. Flying fly can be seen in those who are nearsighted, migraine, undergoing eye surgery, having intraocular inflammation or uveitis, using various medications, and undergoing severe illness and surgery. Heavy and long eye work, such as studying day and night, reading for a long time can also cause this problem. Fatigue, stress, crying for a long time, dealing with computers, cell phones and screens for a long time, and driving a car for a long time, especially in the dark, are other risk factors. It can be seen in those who follow a diet program to lose weight, those who have covid, and even those who have a covid vaccine.
