I had a retinal tear a week ago ... The next day I started to see a large floater that would swirl in front of my vision - and stay there and cause blurriness. It's been over a week & it hasn't gone away. Everytime i move my eye it comes right back in front of my vision .. question is this permanent ? I never had floaters in that eye. Did the lazer surgery cause this floater? I'm concerned this is permanent.
