Question 10

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.
