Suggest Treatment For Arcus Senilis And High Cholesterol Levels
Hi doc, i noticed my arcus senilis since i was 19 and it was increasing since then. I am now 44 and people always ask me if i am wearing contact lens or if i have high cholesterol. How can i get rid of this? Although all the books i read says there is no cure for this, i still want to know if there is any update on the treatment of arcus senilis. Thank you.

Hello,
* As per my surgical experience, the congenital defects of cholesterol metabolism, LDL receptors, apolipoproteins or liver disorders are responsible for such issue.
* As rightly understood there is no cure of the same, but different management options are available for different conditions and I would like to assist further after the details of available reports ahead in follow up chat.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
