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

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.
