  5. I'm 25 and have high blood pressure. Over the past month, I've noticed my eye floaters increasing every day. I saw an ophthalmologist last week, and he did an OCT and said my eyes are fine, prescribing Vitreon sachets for 30 days. My concern is if my eye is healthy, why are the floaters still increasing? Ive never experienced flashes in my eye, but now I see around 25-30 floaterssome are black dots, and others are wavy lines. Could there be another reason for this, or is this something I should be worried about? I've attached the OCT report for reference.

Its reassuring that your OCT report is normal, and increasing floaters without flashes often indicate age-related vitreous changes, which are common but harmless. Since you have high blood pressure, ensure it's well-controlled as it can affect eye health; continue Vitreon as prescribed and follow up if symptoms worsen.
