Why might someone have red rings around the iris?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Inflamation: Typically redness on the conjunctiva (white area) around the outside if the iris (limbus) is due to inflammation. Dilation of the blood vessels causes the red appearance. The underlying cause needs to be identified. I wild recommend you get an eye exam
