What Are The Black Masses With Streaks In My Eye?

I was taking Topamax for nine days, then I woke up with blurred vision. The blurred vision lasted for three days. I went to see an eye dr. and he told me to stop taking Topamax right away. So, I did. But, he also found a black mass with streaks in both eyes. What could the masses be?

Ophthalmologist Dr. Sushil Rungta's  Response
Topamax has a known side effect of visual disturbance. Better to stop it and consult the treating clinician for its replacement.
Black mass in your eyes may be conjunctival mole, which is a benign condition. But your description will be more clear with a picture of your eyes.
Sorry for incomplete reply.
