Specializes in Family Medicine

Interesting: In my 25 yrs of medicine I have not encountered anyone with a green spot in their eye! It may be nothing, but to be safe I would at least have your optometrist take a look at it to make sure that it's not a possible infection. I do not take chances with my (or my patient's) eyesight!
