Suggest Treatment For Corneal Arcus

I am 63 now, and a few years ago developed the corneal arcus, cholesterol rings around my cornea.
Is there any way to remove this . I hate this. and the beautiful bright cinnamon copper color of my eye
is also gone and it is just a flat brown....I want my beautiful eyes back...and that 20/15 vision too !!

It runs with the age ie. It is age related. It is not a disease.
It will not spread towards the centre of cornea.
It will remain at the corneal margin only.
Do not worry.
Enjoy life.
