I have a dot that just goes off my pupil making it semi-sorta irregular?

I have a dot that goes off my pupil on my right eye, my vision is not affected, and it's the same color as my pupil, what could it be? Is it common?
I wish I could post a photo but I cant!

Of course I can't tell you what it is but often the dot is an area where the iris stuck to the lens when the pupil was forming.  Look at some old pictures to see if it was there years ago. If so not likely a problem. If not there in the past then see an ophthalmologist eye MD.

I had it ever since I was 3 and my mom took me to a ophthalmologist and they didn't know what it was either.  
It's not likely anything serious then. Look at these pictures. Look at the one labeled PPM its common  https://www.pinterest.com/mmoshirfar/iris-uvea-choroid/
