Hello
It seems from the history that you are diagnosed with high myopia and you are having floaters.
Artificial tears will not help in this condition.
Floaters require evaluation to rule out posterior segment problems like vitreoretinal traction, vitreous detachment, retinal tear, peripheral retinal degenerations....
These problems are common in high myopia. Hence I adice you to consult ophthalmologist for dilated fundus examination.
Thank you
