why is there a little black dot in front of my face?

Question

Theres a tiny black dot everywhere I look and its been there for about 2 weeks now. Its a little bit to the right of where I look so if I look directly at it it moves. Its weird to explain lol. Its like a tiny mosquito in my face all day. How can I get it to go away? I rinsed my eyes out but that did nothing. Should i see a doctor? Last time I checked I had perfect vision.

Answer 1

You may sometimes see small specks or clouds moving in your field of vision. They are called floaters. You can often see them when looking at a plain background, like a blank wall or blue sky. Floaters are actually tiny clumps of gel or cells inside the vitreous, the clear jelly-like fluid that fills the inside of your eye.
Floaters may look like specks, strands, webs or other shapes. Actually, what you are seeing are the shadows of floaters cast on the retina, the light-sensitive part of the eye.
If a spot or shadowy shape passes in front of your field of vision or to the side, you are seeing a floater. Because they are inside your eye, they move with your eyes when you try to see them. Eye floaters and spots are usually harmless, but flashes of light may indicate a problem. If you're suddenly seeing spots, floaters or flashes, get an eye exam to make sure nothing's wrong.

Answer 2

See an Ophthalmologist (eye doctor). He/she will want to know if you see it with both eyes or just one. Close one eye at a time and check.

Answer 3

. . . They're called periods. They're handy little things you use to end sentences and you get them once a month if you're female. But they're not so black then....

Answer 4

it might just be simple moles which is normal.
