Brown spot

I have a brown spot on my left eye for a couple of years. This morning, I noticed there was another brown spot on my right eye. Is this something that I need to worry about? I wear contacts by the way. Thanks in advance for your input.

Yes, ask your contact lens fitter to look at it with a slit lamp. If there is concern refer you to an Eye MD opthalmologist. The risks however of it being anything other than a "freckle" on the eye is relatively small

Thank you for your message, Dr. I went to see a doctor today it was indeed an eye freckle (conjunctival melanosis). Thanks again for your help!
