A member asked:

I notice that i have limbal rings in my eyes.its not there when i was a teenager.is it possible that it appear when you're aging? i'm 24yrs old.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: You are too young to have it but at the older age (over 60) it is more likely from Arcus Seniles which looks like a white ring on the cornea edge. At the younger age it could be from high level of cholesterol. Pls check your cholesterol level.
