A member asked:

Do eye freckles fade away with time or is it permanent?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Not likely: Freckles and moles don't fade away but may change over time. If there is noticeable change, however, an exam by an eye MD is very important to rule out any atypical progression of the pigmented area.
