  4. Fixed spots in vision. Triglycerides?

Fixed spots in vision
I see fixed spots in my vision. I visited 3 opthemologists and got retina checked 2 times, all in last 4 months. All my eye tests are normal. However, my lipid profile shows triglyceride level of more than 750. My general physician says spots could be due to triglycerides. Should I visit for any other eye and/or neurological checkup or should I first get triglyceride levels reduced? Could these scotoma like spots be due to high triglycerides?

Hi ..an eye check up report will help to understand the issue. Are you talking about floaters? Sometime vitreous may have some opacities .. So will be able to comment if u post the report.
