Answer 1

Hey Chris...if its any consolation I'm 17 and I've had this problem ever since I can remember. I have floaters bad, I see them everyday..I have never really asked my eye doctor about it, but i am planning on getting contacts soon and I will ask him then. You are not alone my friend!

Answer 2

Your eye problems probably are not age related.  Because you are too young for that.  But that doesn't mean that you don't have some eye illness which can make you blind.

You should get a medical examination of your eyes from a qualified doctor.  Quite often blindness can be prevented, when you get medical help soon enough.  But once you loose your vision.  Then there is not much chance that you will ever get it back.
