For everyone else, Google eye-floater. Fascinating.

What exactly do you mean by floaters? - "floaters" are generally used to describe tiny dark spots, specks or spidery webs that float across the field of vision. Most people notice them in well-lit rooms or outdoors on a bright day. After the eye comes to rest, they continue to move. Floaters often are normal, but sometimes they warn of eye problems such as retinal detachment, especially if they happen with light flashes.

Now I have read this far, I have floaters too. I find them a quite pleasant sensation, a bit like counting sheep.
