I was putting sunscreen on my face this morning (which I admit is not the daily practice it once was-I just don't care as much about wrinkles anymore. Wrinkles=wisdom.
Anyway, I noticed these grey crescents over the top of my brown eyes. Very creepy. I did a search and here is what I found:
Old age
Cholesterol
Blood pressure
Contact scarring
Mercury poisoning
Native American ancestry
Now, despite what my 13 year old would tell you, I am not that old. I don't know my cholesterol, but I'll be having it checked within a month or two. My blood pressure is fine. I could have contact scarring, but all of a sudden? I doubt it. I have had braces and do have fillings, and I do eat a lot of canned salmon (although that supposed to be low in mercury, but we know you can't trust the food companies/FDA). I don't know if I have Native American ancestry, but I have some family members on my dad's side that sure look like they do.
Curiouser and curiouser.

The number one reason seems to be problems with lipids, so the cholesterol test will be most important.
