Hello
It seems from the history that your husband had a steroid injection into the eye following which he is having watering, shadow and black spots..
This requires examination of the retina by performing indirect ophthalmoscopy to rule out problems like vitreous hemorrhage and secondary raise of intraocular pressure.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
