Hello, I have had a small dark brown spot on my sclera since I was a kid.
As I got older the spot got bigger and lighter in color. It appears to be tissue that moves ... yes i have messed with it, and it looks gross! as my sister still says lol. It has never been painful but as it got bigger and now closer to my cornea, it now feels like there is something in my eye. I have read online about pterygium and it looks kind of like that only my tissue is on the top part of my eye (not nasal part) , light brown in color, and the tissue is a lot thinner in appearance ... therefore my question is can pterygium be in color and not in the nasal regions of the eye ? I'm probably completely wrong about all my theories I just hope i can get a lil help. I hope all the terms are correct and I apologize if they are not... Im just worried the brown color might mean cancer...
