You can walk over the highlight annotations of the page, then take every of their rectangles and see what's underneath.

for annot in page.annots(types=[fitz.PDF_ANNOT_HIGHLIGHT]):
    rect = annot.rect + (-5, -5, 5, 5)  # annot rect, 5 points larger in every direction
    print("highlighted:", page.get_textbox(rect))
