Eye Floaters & Species-Appropriate Diet: 2 Case Reports
Two floater cases on carnivore — one resolving 90% and the person forgetting they'd ever had them, and one case where doctors explicitly said the floater was permanent. It went away anyway.
Eye Floater Cases on Carnivore
Case 1 — Floaters 90% Gone, Had Forgotten About Them

"All of a sudden I notice — I don't have them. They're gone. I had floaters in my eyes — you know what those are, right? You get these little shadows floating around in your eye. That's probably 90% gone now. It's almost — I matter of fact, it was kind of funny 'cuz I had forgot about them."
Floaters resolved so gradually the person didn't notice until they were mostly gone. The fact they "forgot about them" suggests a slow, non-dramatic clearance — consistent with vitreous reabsorption rather than sudden change.
Case 2 — Doctors Said Floater Was Permanent. It Resolved.

"I had a floater kind of thing in my left eye that the doctors were like, 'Yeah, that's probably never going to go away. It's fluid that got released.' Went away. That was another thing. Went away after that, after, you know, them telling me over and over and over again, won't go away, won't go away."
Doctor explicitly told the patient the floater was permanent — described as released fluid (likely a vitreous detachment condensate). It fully resolved on carnivore. The repeated "they said it was permanent" framing emphasises how unexpected the outcome was.
Proposed Mechanism
Floaters are composed of collagen fibers and cellular debris suspended in the vitreous humor. Chronic systemic inflammation and oxidative stress are thought to accelerate vitreous degeneration and new floater formation. Reducing inflammation may slow formation; improved collagen quality from animal-protein-rich diets may support vitreous structure. These mechanisms are speculative but align with the resolution pattern observed.
