Study to evaluate the efficacy of nutrient combination supplements on benign physiological floaters in adult population

Background: The current standard treatments for eye floaters, such as laser vitreolysis and vitrectomy, present significant limitations due to their invasive nature and associated risks, including retinal detachment and cataracts. Present study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of nutrient combination supplements on benign physiological floaters in adult population.Materials and Methods: Present study was Cross sectional interventional study, conducted adults suffering from primary floaters, High myopia received 1 sachet of vitreon powder in 150 mL of water per day.Results: Among 70 participants, majority were from 31-45 age group (36%), female (54.3%), had excellent visual acuity with a measurement of 20/20 (57%). Myopia, or nearsightedness, is reported by 21% of the participants, while Grade 1 HTNR, DR encompasses 7% of the participants. The majority of participants, accounting for 43%, reported having 1-2 floaters. The majority of participants, representing 64%, reported having small floaters. The total floater count decreased from 100 pre-treatment to 70 post-treatment, indicating a reduction in the overall number of floaters. The floater size showed a decrease from medium to small post-treatment, suggesting a trend toward smaller-sized floaters. There was a shift in floater location from central to peripheral, indicating a change in the spatial distribution of floaters. 71% of participants expressed a positive change post-treatment. The pre-treatment visual acuity is reported as an average of 20/30. Following the treatment, the visual acuity improved, with an average measurement of 20/25 at the 3-month follow-up. USG B-Scan findings indicate that both before and after the treatment, the participants' vitreous structures were normal, with no observable changes.Conclusion: Nutrient combination supplements may be an effective therapeutic option for managing benign physiological floaters, with significant improvements in both objective and subjective measures of visual function and quality of life.
