Hi Jessica, LOVE the avatar!!! That is one of the best photos of blue sclera I have ever seen! Good job! 😉 Usually, doctors like to use a penlight in a darkened room to see it, and will often compare to others in the room, to get some confidence. You? We can see you coming! 😉 I am SO GLAD you captured your yellow spot! Again, best pic I have seen of this! Usually, these spots are pinguecula, but ours seem to come and go, and pinguecula do NOT. I don’t believe this is in the literature at all, but needs to be. When it happened to me, I thought, HECK, I’m an over-achieving eye doc, and I’ve NEVER seen this before!! Very frustrating. I tried EVERYTHING on it to no avail. Then one day, it was gone. It came back briefly a couple of years later, then gone again. If I was a betting gal, I’d betcha we’d find some mast cell degranulations in there, but that is nothing but pure speculation. Be sure to watch for changes to be sure it doesn’t sneak into a sarcoma (your eye doc will know). Thanks for this! 🙂
