A member asked:
I have a habit of blinking my eyes hard & fast. sometime it cause pain while doing it. maybe it's because of dry eyes or it has become my habit. so does it cause any damage to eyes like retinal tear or detachment as i'm high myopic & have floaters?

Your ophthalmologist can answer your question but I don't think it can harm your eyes although it might be irritating. Avoid sunlight & pollution and keep your eyes moist as these may lessen the habit.
