For the love of Pete! Ozzy's med thread

As I gave him his meds yesterday I noticed this spot on his eye in the morning. I tried gently wiping it, thinking it was gunk build up. I couldn't get it out so I left it alone hoping he would take care of it himself. Last night it was still there.
Has anyone else ever seen anything like this? I got the best shot I could but you still can't see how it's raised up, almost like a growth.

This morning it is worse.
It almost looks like it's erupting from the inside. Yuck

Yes, I am definitely going to get him in with Russell this week.
It doesn't appear to be bothering him at all. Only when I try to hold him down for pictures!
My poor ole' boy.

I'm sorry that Ozzy is worrying you even more, SlavetoFuzzy, but am so glad that he is not in pain.
I have not found a photo exactly resembling Ozzy's eye, but here are some links:
Lipid Deposit? In the eye?
white spot in eye... calcium deposit? (Moe)
Link to Calypso's photos of Osseous metaplasia
On many eye threads, I've noticed that Josephine recommends getting eye problems checked as soon as possible, especially if the problem is on the eye itself.
Hugs for Ozzy and Russell! :)

tracis, you are the queen of links! Thank you again! I did a search earlier but didn't find near the photos you did. I don't know what I didn't do right.
Anyway, I am printing out info for my vet to read over. Hopefully it just looks bad. If it doesn't bother him I will not worry too much. I just don't want him to be in pain. He does not deserve that especially after his tough start in life.
