I'm glad you did further research, so I won't bother. My eyes also look pretty much exactly like that, except a little more greyish. I am seen regularly by a board certified opthamologist for near-sightedness issues, and nothing like that ever came up.
You're glad that you said something, and as such, someone isn't going to do their own research, or have their eyes tested for it? You know, I'm actually -boggled- that I said something potentially helpful, and people are acting like this.
I'm not trying to run you down. I'm glad I said, "Hey, I don't know if you're interpreting this correctly." I could have been more sympathetic/simpering, I guess, but it wasn't meant personally that I said I didn't agree with your interpretation.
From my viewpoint it seemed like you were saying that people with the strandy irises were the ones with PGS. Since I have strandy irises and am under care and haven't had this mentioned, I went and dug a little deeper. From my reading, I don't need to be extra concerned, neither does the person in the picture.
Again, this isn't meant personally, but it would also help to know the full story, which is why I'm glad I said something, whether or not old_hedwig does eir own reseaerch.
Both my husband and my eyes have these rings to some degree, but you can easily see the difference in degree from this person's and ours.
Have you ever had a test for it? Based on what our family's opthamologist said, it is rare and rarely tested for. Perhaps it's something British opthamologist are more aware of than Americans. *shrugs* I'd think you'd rather do your own research and check it out, but perhaps not.
