Ophthalmology & Optometry - spot in my left eye


Expert: Dr Anand Shroff, MD, FICS - 7/5/2009

Question
Hi,I have dark cloudy spot in the center my left eye for last one year and it move when i move my eye ball.some time it size become small as small as pen point and other time it become large smoke  spot.I checked it with my doctor she did not fine any thing wrong,she said it is shadow of artery of your eye.

Answer
Dear Siraj,

If this has already been checked by dilating your eyes (for the retina) I do not think that you need to worry. yes, have a dilated eye check every year or even 8 months if need be. These shadows fade away with time and settle down. There is no treatment as theyvare not abnormal.
Hope this helps,
Best,
Dr Shroff
