Maybe unrelated: Colds are very common. Everybody catches a cold occasionally. Getting a spot on an iris is somewhat rare, and is not something that a cold should cause. Thus, the iris spot might be coincidental to the cold and not caused by the cold. One's pediatrician can examine to see what is going on. In-person exam is best but sometimes parents can set up a video visit for their teen, such as on HealthTap.
