What Is A Very Small Mark On The Right Cornea?

Hi, I have been referred by my optician to my local hospital eye infirmary for a two hour appointment where drops will be administered and I will not be able to drive afterwards. My optician found a very small white mark on my right cornea which is in the 10 to 12 position if that makes sense. I am going to the eye appointment on 6th January, but am already starting to worry about it. can you advise what might be wrong with my eye and if it may be really serious?
