I know that is probably a symptom that has been discussed before but ...

I am having terrible problems with my eyes. I have always had floaters but on the last few years they have multiplied a lot. Looking at anything white or just brighter makes me feel blind. I feel like I have to blink and squint all the time. Also, my eyes get blurry now and than and I get a pain at the back of my eyes that goes to the head sometimes and usually for a few minutes and then goes away. Granted it happens when I strain to focus from paper to screen or near and far.

I hate the floaters- I remember having just 2 as a kid and now they are like spider webs everywhere. I checked with an optometrist. I go every year and they keep saying they do not see that many floaters:// I wonder if any of you have such eye problems and if it can be due to meno or peri?
