Little spot on iris, what is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably on cornea: The iris is viewed through the cornea and generally is constant in shape and apopearance. It takes some internal disease, surgery or disruption for it to change. Some irises do have pigmented spots or light spots on them but these are long term. More likely you have a spot on your cornea which sits overtop of the iris inside. If this is new, especially if the vision is down get evaluation.
