15 Things Your Eyes Are Trying To Tell You About Your Overall Health

9. White Spots on the Cornea

The Eye News

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 45 million people in the United States wear contact lenses. Experts explain that people that use contact lenses often get white dots or spots on the cornea of the eye, which is the clear layer in front of the iris. These white dots or spots can indicate a corneal infection accompanied by pain, swelling and even changes in your vision sometimes. If you ever notice this on your own eye, be sure to seek out medical help to get the necessary treatment because if left without treatment, it can cause scarring, cataracts, astigmatism, and other issues.
