Floaters are small specks that move in and out of your field of vision. They may be more noticeable when looking at a plain background. Floaters are tiny clumps of strands, fibers or cells inside the vitreous gel (the clear jelly-like fluid that fills the inside of the eye) that pass in and out of your vision.  Floaters can give rise to countless indescribable shapes or patterns, but the underlying causes for these are the same in all individuals.
