Question : I have a white thing on the lower rim of my iris that is barely noticeable. It is completely painless and I would not know it was there if I hadn’t looked in the mirror. I am wearing a patch and cleaned the eye for safety. What should I do to Resolve this?

Brief Answer:
Probably no treatment needed

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Iris color is never uniform and there may be different colored patches and in your case it may be normal variation.
SO if you dont have other symptoms such as blurred vision, pain or eye pressure then i dont think that any treatment is required. if you have these symptoms, then ophtalmologist should be consulted.
Wish you good health. Regards
