Everybody has floaters, they are harmless bits of debris that float around in the vitreous humour that makes up the centre of the eye. Usually short sighted people notice them more easily. They don't become more frequent with age. Most people ignore them and they don't interfere with vision so don't worry about them.

i have had them for years and the optician said they are nothing to worry about in my case.

but you should go get them checked just to put your mind at ease. :)
