What is a white fleck in your eye, next to the iris?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eye discoloration: It is very common to have whitish or yellow deposits on the conjunctiva. This is the tissue covering the white of the eye. The most common cause of this is chronic sunlight exposure to the eye surface. These changes are typically permanent.
