Hi,
First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.
Based on the history you have shared, you need to take strong analgesics as NSAIDs as per prescription and get an ophthalmologist consultation as these black dots may be because of floaters in the eye.
If pain is not settling then consult a neurologist and get stronger painkillers.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
