My cat has brown spots on its eyes. What are they and should I worry?

I noticed today that Tiger had two brown spots on his pupils/corneas. What are these kind of spots, and what can be done about them? See the attached image, to see what the spots look like. Pet's info: Cat | Norwegian Forest Cat | Male | neutered | 13 years and 6 months old | 9.9 lbs

They appear to be on the cornea and they be pigmentation if there is chronic rubbing form the eye lids to that spot. They can also have fat or mineral or calcium deposits on the cornea. These are non pathologic and cause not harm to the eyes or to him. The only way to know for sure which type they are is to have your vet exam them in person. If you notice any eye discharge or he is holding his eyes closed, then I would be concerned that there is an ulcer or an infection present.
