Bluish Black Spots on Sclera (White Part of Eye)
I recently had a case of pink eye and while I have overcome it I have noticed that there are small bluish/black spots underneath my eyelid on the white part of my eye. I also feel some tenderness there as well. I'm concerned and want to know if this is serious or just something related to the pink eye. Thank you.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Some times grey blue spots appear on the sclera called sclera melanocytosis. These are painless spots. If there is pain or tenderness at such spots, then this could be due to a bleeding capillary or a clot in a small blood vessel following pink eye or conjunctivitis. Please consult an eye specialist.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
