Hello
It seems from the history that you are having black spots in the eyes.
These appear like floaters and are usually because of opacities in the vitreous which lies behind the lens.
These are usually because of age related degenerations affecting the vitreous and need not worry about them.
However if the floaters increase in number or if there is associated flashes you need to undergo examination by a ophthalmologist.
Thank you
