Suggest Remedy To Remove Foreign Object Fro Eye
I do not wear contacts and I seem to have a foreign object in my eye. It's very small, white, opaque, and looks like a solid circle. It is at the edge of my iris and I previously removed what seemed to be lint from my eye, and then this thing appeared and it won't come off when I rinse my eye out.

Hi..Thanks for the query...
It could be a foreign body or a corneal epithelial defect which requires careful examination under slit lamp..
You can use some antibiotic eye drops and lubricating eye drops for relief and I suggest you to consult an ophthalmologist for proper diagnosis and treatment..
Take care..
