confused about freckle,nevus,etc

I seen several Dr's about my eye and everyone has a different opinion on it.
What is the difference between a nevus, mole, freckle, and pigmentation.
Some people I say I have pigmentation on the retina and it is normal. Some say its a eye freckle. Some say
pigmentation is the same thing as nevus. Same say not. Also what is a nevus cell? Do all have nevus have nevus
cell? Does pigmentation have nevus cell? Somebody please answer so I can get some sleep.

Unless you're a pathologist its not important. They are pretty much the same. None cause much problem. If you want more explanation you can google IMAGE it or go to a pathology website.
