It seems from the history that you are having eye pain with dizziness and flashes of light with feeling of pulsation.
These symptoms indicate migraine.
The treatment of the condition is by use of analgesic and antiinflammatory drugs for pain relief. The specific treatment is by use of ergot alkaloids.
The recurrent attacks require use of drugs like flunarizine.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
