Floaters? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floater

No, quite different. Floaters look like paramecium in my visual field, or hairs floating in fluid (that kind of corona around an object) Maybe there is a sub class of floater which is like PVD but .. to me at least this was qualitatively different.

I suppose the crap left over from a PVD incident would be a sub-class of "floater" but in quality, its nothing like the floaters I get "all the time" as normal life, before and after PVD.

The one upside of PVD is I am told your chances of a retinal tear are reduced, if you have a "clean" PVD.
