I read some studies a while back that showed taking a bromelain (pineapple enzyme) supplement on an empty stomach consistently each day will eventually reduce floaters fairly significantly by dissolving them.
EDIT: According the study linked below, roughly 200mg of bromelain taken 3 times per day, and done for 3 months, should give the best results. Most bromelain supplements on the market seem to start at 500mg, so I suppose just one per day should be okay, though it may take longer since it’s not spaced out to keep the dose more constant throughout the day. There is bromelain powder which you could dose out to 200mg, but this stuff has a very strong odor that may be difficult to swallow in a liquid.
Also, don’t take bromelain if you are allergic to Pineapple.
Floaters can vary drastically from barely noticeable (like in the meme), to extremely distracting (large black or gray dots floating around in the vision even when reading a book or using a computer), to limiting eyesight almost like cataracts.
In this study, one patient’s eyesight improved from 6/60 to 30/60 due to how severely the floaters obstructed vision.
And bear in mind, one of the physical alternatives to eliminating the floaters has a 7% chance of permanent blindness, whereas a single $16 bottle of concentrated pineapple enzyme can drastically reduce them with little to no side effects, and no chance of long-term harm.

Purpose: Ocular floaters caused by vitreous degeneration or blood clots may interfere with various visual functions. Our study investigated the pharmacologic effects of oral supplementation of mixed fruit enzymes (MFEs) for treating spontaneous ...
