Birthmark in Eye

2017-04-25 10:45:54
I have a birthmark in the white of the eye.It is a brown in color and covers some of the white portion on one side in one of the eye.Doctors say that it is harmless.However, for cosmetic reasons is there any way I can hide it using some kind of lenses.I have heard about scleral lenses but not sure if it will work in this case.
