Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hi..
Welcome to HCM..
Thanks for the query..
It could be a membrane like growth over the white of your eye..
Nothing to worry about that..
It can happen if you are exposed to sunlight..
It causes a little redness, burning sensation and irritation..
Nothing needs to be done as long as it stays away from black portion of the eye..
You can use artificial tear drops and anti inflammatory eye drops for relief if you want..
You can consult your nearest ophthalmologist for better evaluation..
Hope this information is helpful to you..
Will be available for further queries..
Take care..
