A limbal ring is a dark ring around the iris of the eye, where the sclera meets the cornea.[1] It is a dark-colored manifestation of the corneal limbus resulting from optical properties of the region.[2] The appearance and visibility of the limbal ring can be negatively affected by a variety of medical conditions concerning the peripheral cornea.[3] It has been suggested that limbal ring thickness may correlate with health or youthfulness and may contribute to facial attractiveness.[3][4] Some contact lenses are colored to simulate limbal rings.[1]

Youth, health, and attractiveness[edit]

Jelly bean software. Both health and age are positively correlated with a prominent limbal ring.[5] For instance, a darker limbal ring tends to be found more attractive than the absence of a limbal ring, suggesting that both sexes 'use the limbal ring as a probabilistic indicator of reproductive fitness'.[5] Furthermore, limbal rings appear to be most noticeable 'for individuals relatively free from chronic health issues'.[6]

Limbal Ring Eye

The limbal ring is thought to contain corneal epithelium stem cells.[7] Diseases involving a limbal stem cell deficiency are associated with blindness, as those with such deficiencies are 'unable to maintain a stable corneal surface.'.[8] Transplantation of limbal stem cells is a promising therapy for limbal stem cell deficiency.[9]

SPEAKING FOR THOSE WITH NO VOICE…WHO LONG TO BE HEARD.

Speak for Animals has been going into Upstate South Carolina communities to save and improve the lives of companion animals in the Upstate since 2003 through:
Eye
  • Low and No Cost Spay and Neuter Programs
  • Community Outreach
  • Advocating for the most vulnerable
  • Humane Education
  • Working in collaboration with groups who share our mission

Why we exist:

Ring

I98 visual cleaner camera. There is a real need in our community to proactively reach out and offer low or no cost spay/neuter options for animals who belong to people who love them, but have financial or transportation barriers to getting it done. Time after time we are called lifesavers and are so appreciated because people want what is best for their animal friends, but haven’t had the resources to make it happen. Our programs directly reduce the amount of unwanted and discarded companion animals in the Upstate and beyond by the most effective methods - education on kind, compassionate care of animals and spay and neuter.
