What is this dark spot in my eye? it is slightly darker and transluscent.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Floater: Usually just a vitreous floater caused by thin strands of connective tissue that run through the vitreous jelly in the back of your eye. Sometimes, however, there can be blood in the eye from diabetic retinopathy or trauma. Sometimes just a dry spot or a little allergy. Go see your specialist eye md (ophthalmologist) who will establish the exact cause.
