One trick to see if it's regular floaters or something
   different: When you see a floater, just keep that eye open for a
   little longer and see if the floater settles down to the bottom
   of the eye (goes away). The only other thing I know that it
   could be is a detaching retina - but I hear it looks like
   fluttering curtains. I was tested for it when i was in my 20's
   'cause I was nerous about my eyes then. If you have the $$, and
   it's worth it for peace of mind, get it checked out. "
