Everyone on here talking about theirs going away over time and I'm wondering if I'm supposed to go in for regular scraping as I get older

They're little bits of debris and fibrous points in the gel matrix of your eye. They don't go away ever, but they float to a part of your eye you don't pay as much attention to. They tend to "go away" in people who consistently sleep on the same side. If you're a back sleeper, or move around a lot, they tend to stick near your macula (your main focal point).

When I run ocular scans on people I can see them drifting around. They're not a problem unless they're dense or dark, then they might be blood due to a retinal tear or diabetic retinopathy.

So, in theory, I should be able to get in one of these centrifuges that NASA has, and they’ll all get pushed to one side?

I’ve got some childhood trauma associated with those things that always reminds me of the taste and texture of a mouth full of dirt.
