Abstract
We report a first rare case of a 25 year old young female patient came to our out patient department of ophthalmology with chief complaints of white ring noticed in her eyes since 2years,which was insidious in onset and gradually progressive in nature, painless and no history of any other ocular complaints. She is a known case of hypothyroidism since 5 years and she is on medications with tablet thyronorm 75mcg OD.and there was nothing significant family history. By diffuse and oblique slit lamp examination its been physically diagnosed as “Arcus juvenilis’’in her both eyes. Her Intraocular pressure (IOP) and fundus examination is also within normal limits. We asked her to get her lipid profile, thyroid profile, electrocardiogram (ECG) to be done and laboratoty reports showing deranged thyroid profile and lipid profile was within normal limits and asked her for further followup. In hypothyroidism patients also we should check for corneal arcus in his/her eyes. Both Ophthalmologists and physicians plays a very important role in early diagnosis and management in these case of patients. In our case we found out there is a strong association of arcus juvenilis and hypothyroidism.
