This thing in my eye...?
I've had it it for a few years now... it's like a brown dot, with a red vein connected to it... it doesn't hurt but it's annoying me

Hello there.... .
In some races with darker skin or people with excessive sun exposure it is quite common for melanin deposits to appear on the sclera (white part of eye) and they just look like brown spots. Melanin is just the pigment that colors our eyes and skin and is quite normal and harmless. As long as the spot does not appear to be growing or changing in anyway you should be find.... to rule out any serious underlying cause it would be a good idea to get it checked out by an eye doctor :)
Hope that helps :)
