I'm high myopic and have floaters. why does my eyes feel heavy only when i close them? it has happened with me before some days and now again it has started. is it due to screen time as i'm using my phone all day till night?

Could well be due to eye strain from staring at a screen for long periods. Try to take a break, at least every twenty minutes, and look away at a distant object for a few seconds. You may also try to find some other way to amuse yourself rather than being glued to your phone. Exercise regularly.
