I'm a 49-year-old man who's been dealing with eye floaters for about 3 months now. Are there any effective treatments for this condition? Is surgery a good option or too risky? Can medications or eye drops help clear up floaters? I've heard about homeopathy and ayurveda for this - do those actually work or is it better to stick with conventional treatments?

Treatment include vitrectomy,to remove the floater, laser treatment or vitreolysis.

My dad is 61 and had CABG surgery two weeks ago. He lost vision in his left eye 23 days before the surgery. The optician recommended eye injections, but since he just had heart surgery, when is it safe to treat his eye problem?

It's crucial to consult with both the ophthalmologist and your father's cardiac surgeon or cardiologist to determine the safest timing for eye treatment. Two weeks after CABG surgery, the body is still in a recovery phase, and any procedure could potentially put additional strain on the heart or interfere with the healing process.
