See eye MD: You may have something benign like arcus senilis, but it can also be a serious sign of Wilson's disease. Wilson's disease is an inherited disorder in which there is too much copper in the body's tissues. The excess copper damages the liver and nervous system. See an eye MD right away.

Question 3

Needs a full eval: The gold ring you mention may be evidence of a copper metabolism defect called wilson's disease that can be treated.Without treatment your future is bleak. I would get in to see someone within the next week & start the process of sorting this out.

Question 4

my daughter has had yellow rings around her eyes for yrs. now the color is gold to orange, only around eyes. why? thank you

Accepted Answer

Eye exam: She should have an eye exam to evaluate these rings. If i understand your description correctly, the gold rings could be kayser fleisher rings, copper deposits on the outer edges of the cornea. This is found in wilson's disease, an autosomal recessive (genetic) disease due to a problem with the bodies ability to store copper. Copper builds up in the body and can be deposited on the cornea.

Question 5

yes eye color is genetically chosen but i'm the only one out of both parents that have this bright gold ring around the iris is it a disease?

Accepted Answer

Not likely : Iris colors, textures and patterns are as variable as people are. As long as you're vision is normal and your eyes are very similar in their appearance  and you feel well, then it is unlikely there's a problem. Always, when in doubt, have an eye exam for reassurance.

Accepted Answer

May : May be just reflection.  I would have a good ophthalmic exam to be sure that it does not relate to any systemic disease.

Question 8

Question 9

do  i have central heterochromia? i've are hazel & change colors  but i have a gold circle around both pupils that never changes. can you have both hazel eyes and central heterochromia? thank you

Accepted Answer

Yes: Hazel eyes are probably more likely to have heterochromia since there are so many colors seen.  Central heterochromia is really very beautiful and usually not related to illness.  If that is the only symptom, you're fine.

Question 10

my daughter has yellowing on the skin all around her eye. not eyeball the skin on her face now its turning gold to orange color. why? thank you

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: You do not mention age or other areas that might be involved. It is common for toddlers to have a yellow tint to their ears, finger pads and some other skin areas due to accumulation of vitamin a from yellow vegetables. Light penetrates these areas and gives the yellowish tint. Beyond the toddler years this tends to fade. If she is not a toddler, i don't have a clue. Try being more specific.
