This lengthy video goes over some basics such as the anatomy and optics of the eye as well as the composition of the vitreous humor. Breakdown and degeneration of the vitreous is responsible for aggregation, thickening, and clumping of the collagen proteins responsible for the shadows cast on to the retina creating the phenomenon called vitreous eye floaters. These are the spots, clouds, shadows, and blurred areas of vision that drive you to distraction. We also discuss how the laser is designed in a way to reduce risk to the patient undergoing laser vitreolysis.

The Floater Doctor, James H. Johnson M.D. is Medical Director of the only medical practice in the world specializing in, and exclusively treating bothersome spots, shadows, and clouds that affect your vision. Although common, especially changes such as posterior vitreous detachment (PVDs) as we age, these vitreous eye floaters are rarely offered treatment by your local and well qualified eye care providers, even at top specialty institutions. Dr. Johnson uses a specialized FDA-approved YAG laser to vaporize and destroy the proteins in the vitreous that are responsible for your spots, shadows, and moving blurred areas in your vision. He has been doing so since 2007 making him one of, if not the most experienced in the very specialty niche area in ophthalmology, a pioneer in this field.
