Black spot

Black spot

I have noticed in my right eye only a black spot when I look down. I do not notice anything when I look straight out. I also have had some pain in my left eye but no spots or anything. I do have cataracts

It might represent a vitreous floater if it is just a "spot" in  your vision but if it more of a vague blurry area it could be a more serious retinal disorder or even a cataract or other problem.  The only way you will find out is with a complete eye exam with an ophthalmologist as soon as possible.  It is not a normal symtoms (symptoms) and even my patients with floaters don't usually notice them only when looking down.  Makes me a little concerned there could be more to it.
