From what I've researched over the Net, an ovoid (oval-ish) opacity (an area where light can't pass through) is a mass. If you're referring to your lungs, then it's a mass in your lung.
Opacities can occur in any area of the lens.

An 'ovoid' is a 3 dimensional oval - for example, an egg.
An ovoid is a three-dimensional egg-shaped object with a curved surface. It is similar to an oval shape but in a three-dimensional form. Ovoids are commonly found in nature and art as a shape that represents balance and harmony.

Fibrolinear opacities refer to linear patterns of opacity observed in imaging studies, often indicative of fibrotic tissue changes in the lungs. These opacities can be associated with various pulmonary conditions, including interstitial lung disease, pulmonary fibrosis, or post-inflammatory changes. They typically reflect the presence of collagen deposition or scarring in the lung interstitium. Identifying fibrolinear opacities helps clinicians assess the extent and progression of lung diseases.

Ovoid
An ovoid lesion is a lesion that is egg-shaped. There are many studies linking these lesions to diseases like multiple sclerosis.
Reticular opacities are patterns seen on imaging studies, particularly X-rays or CT scans, characterized by a net-like or lace-like appearance. They typically indicate the presence of interstitial lung diseases, fibrosis, or other pulmonary conditions that affect the lung parenchyma. These opacities result from the thickening of interstitial tissues or the accumulation of fluid or cells in the lung interstitium. Evaluating reticular opacities helps clinicians assess and diagnose underlying respiratory disorders.
