Vitreous opacities are condensations and inhomogeneities within the vitreous humor, which can be irritating for affected patients upon their first appearance and necessitate a retinal examination for newly formed tears and holes, but are not inherently threatening. Although they can be highly disruptive at times, the symptoms spontaneously improve in most cases after a few months, and the vitreous opacities only become noticeable in specific situations, such as when looking at a white wall, a snowfield, or a clear blue sky. Therefore, treatment is not required in most cases. However, in instances of persistent and severe impairment that may affect one’s profession (e.g., driving hazardous goods vehicles, professional hunters, pilots), treatment of the opacities with a YAG laser can be considered with a cautious indication.
