Eyes affected (right, left, or both):
Number of floaters you perceive (in left eye and right eye):
Length of time you suffered from obtrusive eye floaters:
Level of obstruction of vision due to floaters (0 to 10, 10 being the total or near-total blindness):
Level of psychological impact of floaters (0 to 10, 10 being major depression and anxiety):
Time of day impact on floaters (better/worse in the morning/noon/evening or same throughout the day):

If you don't perceive floaters at all, I encourage you to participate in the survey by just stating your age, gender, and the fact that you're obtrusive-eye-floater-free.
Thank you.
