Brief Answer:
Treatment time is approximately 6 weeks.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Such isolated floaters are of not much significance.Their going away is usually your not seeing them in your visual axis.
There is a jelly like fluid in the back of eye,where with age fibrils develop,seen as dark objects of varying shape.We attach significance to them when a bunch of them appears overnight.
To manage these floaters,you have to keep a your medical parameters like sugar and BP within normal range, along with this adequate nutrition usually keeps floaters in check.
You should keep this in mind that this is basically a degenerative condition.
Do get back to me in case of any further queries in this regard.
