Floaters are a common complaint, but it is difficult to know if imaging findings of the vitreous correlate to what patients perceive. Widefield SLO appears to image vitreous abnormalities related to how patients perceive their own floaters better than B-scan ultrasonography. Despite the term "floaters", the vitreous abnormalities in the videos appeared to be manifestations of a complex three-dimensional degeneration of the vitreous framework.
