Can using computer and cell phone after dilation eye exam can damage eyes

[Reuel19]

I had go for an eye exam an the doctor dilated my eyes using eye drops because I had floaters and 1 hour after the exam I was browsing on my cell phone  and using the computer did it damage my eyes because after a month  I got large eye floaters  the Floaters look big as a building

I had gone for a dilated eye exam before the exam my floaters were small and after the eye exam I developed large floaters can you tell me the cause is the dilation drops damage my eyes or strain because after the dilation eye exam I used the computer and cell phone

Your floaters are not connected to the eyedrops or use of your phone/computer. Floaters are however a possible sign of serious eye problems! You should call your eye doctor immediately and tell them that you have new floaters. Your eyes should be examined within a day or two to rule out retinal tearing or retinal detachment.
