Yes! The Flourescent lights that are all so common now are one of the biggest factors for me.  They're used almost everywhere from the office to supermarkets and malls.  You can't avoid them and they're bloody awful. 

At home I try to use lamps and point them up towards the ceiling to give an ambient light which is far far better for floaters.  I can barely see them, but my OH does say that it's a bit dark, however she was brought up with fluorescent lights in her living room and kitchen.
