Best Answer

I have had a tiny (almost unnoticeable) white dot in my pupil since birth. My eye doctor says that I was born with it. When babies develop in the womb, there is an umbilical cord-like thing connecting the eye to the brain. It usually dissolves as the fetus continues to develop, but some people's stay. The Dr. said out of 11 years practicing, she has only seen maybe 20 people with the issue. It doesn't cause me any problems, although, I would get it checked out to make sure that is what it is and not something else like an infection or cataract.

Why is the pupil a circle?

The pupil is a hole surrounded by the iris which is the colored part of your eye. The pupil gets bigger and smaller because the iris expands or contracts to let more or less light in so you can see better. Have you ever noticed red-eye taken in a photo with flash. Well it is actually the light from the flash bouncing off of the back of your eye, if the pupil was a solid black dot it would not show the reflection coming out
