A common condition is palpebral fissures, which are mostly located in the whites of the eyes on both sides of the black eyeball, and are yellowish-white, amorphous raised plaques, which are formed by the degeneration and proliferation of conjunctival tissue due to long-term stimulation by ultraviolet rays and sand. Generally, there are no obvious symptoms, do not affect vision, and do not require special treatment, but if inflammation occurs, appropriate medication can be used.
There may also be senile rings, which are common in middle-aged and older adults and present as a grayish-white or white ring of opacities about 1 to 2 mm wide at the edge of the cornea. This is mainly caused by excessive cholesterol, phospholipids and other lipids in the blood deposited in the periphery of the cornea. In most cases, the senile ring does not affect vision and does not require special treatment, but it may be associated with systemic diseases such as hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis, and it is best to perform relevant examinations after detection.
