Rare eye condition ????????????

Question

I have a white spot in my left pupil, it makes my vision blurry and I can't even see when I go outside when it's sunny, what should I do? I had this since I was six weeks old, should I go to a doctor and get it removed somehow?

Answer 1

This could be, from your description, either a corneal scar or an anterior polar congenital cataract.  Most probably the latter.

There are possibilities for surgical treatment if it is a cataract, perhaps fewer if it is a corneal scar.

But there are potential down-side to cataract surgery too, especially if you are under 40.  It would have to be discussed with a doctor according to the findings in your individual case.
