Had eye exam and picture of eyes, doctor said i have a spot/freckle behind eye, said not to worry but need to get dilated to see it better. am worried?

Not right now.: A regular eye exam only shows about 10% of the retina, so a dilated exam will give a much better idea about the health of your eyes.
