What is this?

I have posted up a pic of my eye.  It looks like the sclera is overgrown the iris almost.  I have had this since I was a baby and have never had any ill effects from it. It never changes. I have asked my optician what is is and he doesn't know why my eye is like this.  Thanks

The focus is very poor. It looks like a white area in the peripheral cornea.  If it is not changing I would not worry about it.

Dr. O,
