Discoloration in the eye
by dgr81, Sep 10, 2006 12:00AM
But there's a discoloration in my left eye (cornea)... kind of like a small patch adjacent to the pupil and it's brownish in colour. It does not cause me any pain or problems with vision and for these reasons i haven't seeked professional help... But over the years the discoloration has become very prominent... Should i have any reason to worry?

um, i doubt it is your cornea that is discolored. its most likely your iris ir your sclera/bulbar conjunctiva.
i dont think you should necessarily be WORRIED, but someone needs to at least look at what you're talking about to rule out tumors, etc.

I am a pre school teacher and we have a child in the classroom that has gray spots that circle the white's of his eyes. His eyes are droopy, and kind of bugged out is this a sign of a problem or is it just the color of his eyes.
