Hello. My name is Thomas. I'm waiting to see an eye doctor to determine if I have K-F ring. But I'd like to see your opinions. This is link to photography of my eye:

And what are thes browne spots on the iris.
thanks
greetings
Hi Thomas
as I am not an iridologist i would not like to offer an opinion on what the spots are on your eye, however I would be pretty certain they are not KF rings. As the name suggests they are definite rings - like a border around the iris. Much of the time they are not visible to the eye, but seen under a slit lamp. However in saying that - sometimes, when they are pretty serious they are visible.
there are some good pics on www.wilsonsdisease.org
good luck
cheers

Are these pictures truly of your own eyes? I noticed that they are on a Polish media site. They do look like the start of KF rings to me but I think you need to check with a good eye doctor to be sure.

Could the specks I seen in the photo also be related to WD (copper)? I', asking because my daughter had them and after her liver transplant she no longer does.
Thanks for your answers. The Kayser-Fleischer ring usually begins in the upper part of the cornea (or iris) - like in this photo.
To mgraper1: Yes, I'm from Poland, I have an account on this server. This is my eye.
