See if u have flashes of light along with floaters then u should see an ophthalmologist.  Otherwise it is a normal phenomenon.

For a high myopic patient like you, some floaters are normal. But any sudden increase in the number of floaters with or without flashes is a cause for alarm and needs consultation with a retina specialist to rule out retinal holes or breaks.
