Question:

I have this white speck on my eye, by my pupil. It won't come out.?

It doesn't hurt, just feels like an eyelash in my eye. It isn't bothering my eyesight. It just came today.


Answers:

A fresh visible white speck on the cornea?
Not on the white of the eye or lid but in front of the iris or pupil?

That needs a professional examination...

Possible corneal ulcer or small embedded foreign body.
(neither has to be markedly painful)
It doesn't have to be either, but those need eliminating as possibilities.
