I have slight pain in my right eyes and I am seeing spots frequently. What could be wrong?

It could be some type of inflammation or, less likely, infection. You should start with seeing an ophthalmologist.

How is strabismus treated?

He should be seen by a pediatric ophthalmologist and make sure it is "just" strabismus and not anything underlying that is causing the eye misalignment that needs to be addressed. READ MORE

The strabismus is usually treated surgically

If nothing is found, then it could be corrected with surgery, I'd think.

Are eye floaters a problem of the eye or a neurological problem?

They are an eye problem, but should be evaluated to be sure there isn't an underlying inflammation, infection or retinal problem causing them.

Rarely something in the upper lid can induce an astigmatism, but could also make the eyes look different, so make sure you get it checked out!

It would be helpful to know more about the accident and the double vision.

Assuming no direct facial trauma, and just a closed head injury, if the double vision were horizontal and at distance, one would think about a 6th nerve palsy, possibly bilateral 6th (in which case the images would get further apart looking both right and left.) If the double were horizontal at near, convergence insufficiency would be high on the list (very common after concussions).
If it were vertical double vision, one would think about 4th nerve palsy or palsies.
If there were direct facial/periocular trauma you would also have to think about orbit fractures with globe displacement and/or muscle entrapment.
In all these cases, it should only be binocular diplopia, i.e. using both eyes together. Covering an eye should resolve the double vision. If the diplopia persists monocularly, then think about a dislocated lens or IOL and rarely a retinal detachement.
