Suggest Remedy For Black Floaters

I suddenly got tiny black floaters in my right eye all of a sudden. I am not diabetaic. It has been a week now. I got my eye tested and there is no problem with the retna. But it is annoying and I was wondering if it will go away. I am 62. Thanks

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having floaters. These occur because of age related degenerations in the vitreous. No need to worry these are harmless. Since retinal examination is also normal no need to worry about it.
If they are very problematic they can be treated by laser.

Thank you
