Along perhaps a similar line; since my diagnosis in March 2000, and the instigation of a new, trial dopamine agonist, plus 100 mg amantadine 2X daily in October 2000, I have developed LARGE "floaters" in both eyes. One occurred in January 2001 and the other in April. Although I was assured they would eventually "settle out" in a few months, they are still annoyingly present. The Opthoamologist does not seem to be concerned, but I often wonder if they might be PD drug induced or related.
