Arcus senilis; Other names: arcus adiposus, arcus juvenilis, arcus lipoides corneae, arcus cornealis: Arcus senilis deposits tend to start at 6 and 12 o'clock and progress until becoming completely circumferential. The thin clear section separating the arcus from the limbus is known as the clear interval of Vogt. Specialty: Ophthalmology Symptoms
Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IMM) of presumed autoimmune dysfunction resulting in muscle weakness among other complications. It manifests itself in children; it is the pediatric counterpart of dermatomyositis.
The genesis of the syndrome is unknown, however it has been suggested that inflammation of the arcus tendon is the possible cause of levator ani syndrome.

[1] [2] Patients observe these symptoms and seek medical advice from healthcare professionals. Because most people are not diagnostically trained or knowledgeable, they typically describe their symptoms in layman's terms, rather than using specific medical terminology. This list is not exhaustive.
Cornea plana 2 (CNA2) is a congenital disorder that causes the cornea to flatten and the angle between the sclera and cornea to shrink. [1] This could result in the early development of arcus lipoides, hazy corneal limbus, and hyperopia. [2] There is evidence that cornea plana 2 is caused by mutations in KERA gene encoding keratocan.

Most patients are asymptomatic, and come to clinical attention when a mass is discovered incidentally on routine dental X-rays. [2] When patients are symptomatic, they present with non-specific symptoms, such as chronic sinusitis, rhinorrhea, obstruction, pain, facial enlargement and possibly visual changes.
Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis (also known as fibromatosis hyalinica multiplex juvenilis [2] and Murray–Puretic–Drescher syndrome [2]) is a very rare, autosomal recessive disease due to mutations in capillary morphogenesis protein-2 (CMG-2 gene).
