Hello
It seems from the history that you are having frequent headache with sensation of seeing black floating objects. This sensation is common in primary headaches like migraine and called as aura.
These features are typical of migraine headache. The treatment is by use of analgesic/anti-inflammatory drugs in acute episode or by use of ergot alkaloids.
Since you are having repeated attacks, you may require prophylactic drugs like flunarizine or beta blockers like propranolol.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
