Arcus senilis : ウィキペディア英語版 | Arcus senilis
Arcus senilis (or ''arcus senilis corneae'') is a white, grey, or blue opaque ring in the corneal margin (peripheral corneal opacity), or white ring in front of the periphery of the iris. It is present at birth, but then fades; however, it is quite commonly present in the elderly. It can also appear earlier in life as a result of hypercholesterolemia. Arcus senilis can be confused with the limbus sign, which reflects calcium rather than lipid deposits. ==Alternative names==
It is also called ''arcus adiposus'', ''arcus juvenilis'' (when it occurs in younger individuals), ''arcus lipoides corneae'' or ''arcus cornealis''; sometimes a ''gerontoxon''.
