I am a 37 year old male and i?ve discovered white/grey arcs on the top and some of the bottom of my eyes. It seems to me to be arcus juveniles. I have an appointment with my doctor in a few days but am very worried. Could it be anything other than cholesterol deposits?

Hi, Our older adults a gray white or blue ring around the iris is most likely and arcus senilis. This is a layer of lipids or fatty tissue deposited. At the meeting point of the iris and sclera. This is a normal part of aging in many people and nothing to worry about no.
