A member asked:

I have a red sore with a white dot in the middle of it in the white part of my eye. it doesn't really hurt but its giving me headaches!!! what is it??

See ophthalmologist: It is difficult to tell if we are not able to look at it. My recommendation is to try to be seen by an eye doctor or ophthalmologist who can definitely be able to take care of that.
