Aqueous humour

Hello. I was wondering whether there are any anomalies related to the Aqueous humour's transparency.
For example, I've been experiencing these weird black dots that I can only see when looking at LED's, light reflection or car headlights (not the sky, my computer screen). It's also worth to mention the following: they move only when I blink, they move upwards, I can see my eye floaters (yes I have some of those) on top of them (which makes me think that those dots are not in the vitreous body), I can move my eyes around and these dots remain roughly in the same positions. Also, I did went through a MRI and nothing abnormal was found. Thank you

Your question is relatively easy to explain and hardly worth the cost of a MRI providing you had a normal eye exam by an eye MD ophthalmologist with a macular OCT. What you are seeing are the blood cells circulating around the macular. It is call the Blue Field entoptic effect or the 'flying corpuscule effect.  read more:    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_field_entoptic_phenomenon
