What is this dark spot on the iris part of my eye???

There is this dark spot on the iris part of my eye.  My eye color is brown so the spot is a little darker than my eye color.  I'm not sure what this is.  Would anybody have a clue of what is going on with my eye? Any help would be appreciated.  Thankssss.

I haven't looked at your photos, but this sounds like an iris freckle.  If it has been there for years and isn't changing, it is likely a freckle.  If you are absolutely positive that it is something new, you should be examined by an Eye MD.  Find one near you at www.aao.org.
