For a screen dependent worker they're making life very hard. Had them for 8 years and was struggling every day. They did not get smaller, nor break up, was feeling crippled.

VIM on dark background helped a lot!

I got lucky and had my lenses replaced and the eye fluid completely removed (Vitrectomy). A somewhat risky operation, considering my myopia, but my vision is completely clear now.

I think Vitrectomy is the only sure way to get rid of them. Simply because they get sucked out together with all the old fluid.

Beware though, the floaters could be a sign of some retinal trouble.

This. I had the same surgery. Mine were because of toxoplasmosis.
