Noticed tiny dot on the sclera
Hi. Today I noticed this tiny dot on the white part of the eye.
Here is a picture of it:

There are many dots on the iris but it's first time I see it on the sclera.
Is it normal or should I be worried?

The picture is not high quality and we don't make definitive diagnosis here. Having said that it does not look worrisome. These pigmented spots often occur where small blood vessels or nerves enter and leave the sclera. Next eye exam point them out to your ophthalmologist.
