Smiles - i have a couple of "spots" that have been discovered on examinations. i now have the dilation of my eyes every 12 months to monitor. on examination, they were nothing nasty (though they did find that my visual issues are more complex than we thought). my optometrist keeps a very close eye on me (excuse the pun!) and has sent me to specialists to have detailed visual field tests done and have more examination by specialists

make sure you take DP with you when you go for this exam - you won't be able to drive for at least a few hours, and will have very sensitive eyes for a while
