Does anyone else see floaters or sparkles while looking at the daytime sky? They are so annoying.

Yes! Floaters are normal. :)
I thought I was the only one that saw them, but I asked my optometrist about them, and she said that the floaters are just shadows of the gelatinous matter inside your eye. The shadows fall over your optic nerve, which causes you to see them. You can also see things that rest on your eye's surface, too.
I have also seen the sparkles, but only when I look down the snow on a sunny, winter day. I haven't asked my doctor about those, however;
but they're probably normal too. lol.

Everyone sees floaters.
They are little squiggles of fluid on your eyeball
Perfectly normal
If you dont learn to ignore them they will drive you insane. The only way to get rid of them is to get rid of your eye balls.
But sparkles? You might need to see a doctor. (Whetherr it be anoptometristt or apsychiatristt)

Look up Sheerer's phenomenon. The dots are white blood cells traveling along retinal capillaries, which are less common than red blood cells. The eye compensates for red blood cells, so you don't see them, but occasional white blood cells can be noticed.

Actually it's quite normal, and I explain about it in my question here :

The blue field entoptic phenomenon or Scheerer's phenomenon is the appearance of tiny bright dots moving quickly along squiggly lines in the visual field, especially when looking into blue light (such as the sky)
