Does Swimming cause floaters?

2024-05-31 16:15:50
I am hyper myopic and have currently distance and near vision in both eyes. 15years back I got clear lens surgery and my vision was corrected back then. After some time I got both positive and negative number in both eyes. Question: Is this ok to swim in chlorine treated water as sometime back when I went inside the water, I got small floaters in both of my eyes which got cleared after a course of eye drops.
