Hi. My right eye's iris has a small white/cloudy spot on it. No pain/itching/watery discharge. No changes in vision either. Can this be due to dry eyes? I'm using refresh tears eye drop 4 times a day.

It seems to be due to allergy aggravated by dry eye. Apart from lubricant please put some antiallergic eye drops eg betoact 2to3 times daily. And do cold compresses by ice.
