Query Related To Corneal Spot
Doctor, I Had Keratoconjunctivitis. Due To This, I Had Small White Spot in My Left Eye's Cornea. On The Recommendations Of Doctor, I Have Used A Lubricant Eye Gel Called "Hylo Gel" Approximately For 7-8 Months And Still Using The Gel. The Doctor Called The Spot As "LE Stromal Opacity" in The Diagnosis Section After Consulting Him (He Wrote This When I Consult Him After Using The Drop For 7-8 Months. At The First Time, He Don't Wrote Anything Related To The Spot in Diagnosis Section Without Stromal Keratitis). I'm A Patient Of Myopic Astigmatism And My Vision is 6/6 in Both Eyes With Glasses. But, The Spot is Still Present in My Left Eye's Cornea. Now, I Have Some Queries About The Spot.
1) If The White Spot Effect My Vision, Would It Possible For Me To Obtain 6/6 Vision?
2) Why The Doctor Called The Spot As "LE Stromal Opacity" Withour Writing Things Like "Spot"?
3) Can The Spot Effect My Vision If They Aren't Located At The Central Of The Cornea?
Please Ans This Questions, Doc.

White spot after keratoconjunctvitis has nothing to do with keratoconus. Since your vision is 6/6 in both the eyes, forget about white spot or spots. They are not going to increase, they may faint out with passage of time. At your age of 14
You should concentrate on your studies rather than such useless querries .
For last so many days you are putting question in one form or another.
You are being treated by an ophthalmologist, he must have explained everything to you.

If the corneal opacity is not present in the centre, you can still have 6/6 vision.
Stromal opacity is the correct medical term for the diagnosis as it indicates the depth of the opacity.
The opacity can contribute to your astigmatism but since you have 6/6 vision with glasses, it is unlikely to worsen in future because of this opacity.
