There should not be white spots on the cornea of the eye. A healthy cornea is perfectly clear with no blood vessels, hazy or otherwise pigmented areas.

If you have a white spot on your cornea, it may be a scar from a past infection or as in the case of one of my patients a foreign body (lke a chip of eggshell) that needs removing.

Visit your eye doctor for examination, advice, and care.

This is likely a corneal scar, possibly the result of an ulcer or an infection. However, if the white spot is actually behind the cornea, it is probably the start of a cataract in the lens. Regardless, unless the spot continues to get larger or you see signs of inflammation (redness, tearing, etc), you can probably ignore it.
