Hello
White spot on the white part of the eyes called as conjunctiva may be commonly because of degenerative condition of conjunctiva like pinguecula or concretions.
conjunctival degenerations are not harmful and usually not cause any symptoms. Sometimes these may get inflammed and cause redness and pain. I advice you to consult eye doctor for correct diagnosis.
