Hello
Welcome to Health care magic
I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are diagnosed with a spot behind the right eye. This indicates probable lesion in the retina. The most common problems involving the retina in the older people is age related macular degeneration. This requires proper evaluation and treatment to prevent loss of sight.
Do consult your doctor and get back to me with the examination results so that I can answer your question more accurately.
Thank you
With regards
