It needs to be checked under slit lamp. Don't try to remove it. If u do that u will introduce infection into the eye by putting fingers or water. And if u rub it... It will scratch on ur black part cornea.

Where do you stay in Bengaluru? This needs to be removed in the clinic, Do not try to do anything more yourself if it is not getting washed out easily.
