Pilot - 'Floaters'

[Astrodog]

Just out of curiosity, does the existence of 'floaters' in one's eyes count against them in the eye exam for pilot?

for those who aren't familiar with floaters:

Most probably, especially if they are persistant.

I know this post is quite old but I'm taking a chance.

If you have a 20/20 vision but one eye has a small floater, does it matter for the aircrew selection (pilot)?

Do the medical, you'll know...

I've done the ophthalmologist exam required, no problem so far. Just asking for the aircrew medical at Toronto.

Same comments. 

If it helps, I have a floater.  I am a pilot.

This is the kind of answer I was looking for That reassure me.

Thank you SupersonicMax!
