Does anyone know what this is? (Giant eye pic, possibly disturbing)

Some years ago, I developed this mark on my eye. Understandably worried, I've had doctors look at this thing and they tell me it's nothing to worry about. However, I notice that the appearance of this thing coincided with me improperly wearing contacts for too long at a time. Has anyone ever heard of this happening with prolonged contact lens use?

With the advent of the internet and some research, I think this is a nevus, which is supposed to be a freckle like thing. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

I've had optometrists look at it and check my retina and they've all given me a clean bill of health, but I'm paranoid about this thing.



Edit: I amended the title to give a heads up to readers.
