A member asked:
What cause the sclera turn brown?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rare issue: In 25 years of specialty practice I have never seen this in caucasian race except in rare cases of conjunctival nevi. Much more common in blacks who can develop progressive conjunctival melanosis which should be addressed by eye physician.
