Floaters are deposits of various size, shape, consistency, refractive index, and motility within the eye's vitreous humour, which is normally transparent. At a young age, the vitreous is transparent, but as one ages, imperfections gradually develop. The common type of floater, which is present in most persons' eyes, is due to degenerative changes of the vitreous humour. The perception of floaters is known as [[myodesopsia]], or less commonly as [[myodaeopsia]], [[myiodeopsia]], or [[myiodesopsia]]. They are also called [[muscae volitantes]] (Latin: "flying flies"), or [[mouches volantes]] (from the French).
