See Eye MD: Only with an in-person dilated retinal exam could an accurate diagnosis be made.

Depends: High myopes can have the vitreous detach early in life. As the vitreous detaches, some patients can actually see the back of the vitreous moving in the eye as the eye moves from side to side. This can often times appear like a haze, screen, gauze, cheese cloth, etc. A dilated retina exam will help look for any associated retinal holes or tears.

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?

Do exercises cause retinal detachment for high myopic and floaters? I do many neck streching exercises like crunches, pushups, shaking head. Is there any harm for eyes as I have heard that anyone who have floaters should not do heavy exercise?
