Question 1

doc found a black spot behind my eye said it could be a freckle sending me for 2nd opinion.  seeing floaters n blurry vision eyepain is this normal?

Accepted Answer

No: The frickle is probably a choroidal nevus or mole & a second opinion is good.  Floaters are sign of vitreous detachment, a normal phenomenon, a little early for your age..  But if you vision is blurred and eye is painful must see your eye md asap to rule out retinal tears or detachment. Please also see your family dr for pain on swallowing, an endoscopy  will rule out any rare relationship.

Question 2

i feel tension constantly behind my eyes as if someone has pulled my optic nerves taught. and there is a faint big black spot in my central vision?

Accepted Answer

See an eye doctor: The symptoms you are describing should be evaluated by an eye doctor. This can be caused by a serious condition that needs prompt attention.

Question 3

i see a black spot that takes over my sight in my eye. small outer edge of light. what is this?

Accepted Answer

Dangerous!: Sounds like you might have a retinal detachment, which could threaten your eyesight.  You need to be seen by a specialist as soon as possible.  
It could possibly be something less serious, especially if it comes and goes, but don't take any chances with your sight please.  Good luck.

Question 4

sometimes i see like a transparent black spot in my vision . specially in sunny weather and moves wherever i turn my eyes?

Accepted Answer

Eye exam: make sure to get a retinal examination. Cannot be diagnosed online.

Question 5

i have a black spot on the inner of both bottom eyelids, they itch throughout the day, irritating, and my eyes constantly feel dry now. help please?

Accepted Answer

Black spot: Please have your Primary doctor refer you to an Eye specialist! Everything should be OK!
Please let me know how things go.

Question 6

when i stretch my eyes too fast/quickly towards left side. i see a black spot. is it normal?

Accepted Answer

: Usually this complaint is about a flashing light appearing with rapid eye movement (Moore's phenomenon). A black spot may simply be a floater. I would avoid these sudden eye movements (and avoid "testing" yourself by repeating them). If it worsens in duration, intensity or frequency, see your ophthalmologist for a dilated retinal exam.

Question 7

i have a black spot in the edge of my eyes.. i have it from my birth .. i don't know what is it!!

Accepted Answer

Eyespots; referral: This would be tdifficult to diagnose this finding without seeing your eyes in person or on a very clear picture.  I recommend an evaluation by your family physician or an optometrist.

Question 8

why is there a black spot in my left eye?

Accepted Answer

Visual field?: If you have a black spot in your visual field - recommend medical assessment ('eye doctor).

Question 9

i see black spot in my vision, as the eye moves spots are also moves?

Accepted Answer

Be seen now!: Please see your doctor ASAP as this could be a sign of an ocular stroke or a retinal artery occlusion. I would probably go the to an ER with an ophthalmologist on staff to get fully checked out.

Question 10

i have a black spot in my eye that looks like a spider web. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Commonly squigglies: or floaters are from the loss of clarity of the gel-like substance inside your eye (vitreous). This is a natural process in most patients and does not require treatment. Your eye doctor will check for retinal tears or retinal detachments that can sometimes be associated with new floaters. Retinal issues would require treatment. Be well.
