Thank you very much, and also for the very prompt reply.

The yellow lines are elements of the iridial stroma. There is no need to "correct" them. Of course, distinguished iridologists here are entitled to - and indeed invited to express other opinions :-) Please let me explain a bit the issue of iris color, especially in low-pigment-and-fine-stromal-configurations like those in blue eyes... So here we are looking at the two epithelia and to the iris stroma. Pigment (that's melanin, and this is only one variety for all eye colors, different however from melanins in skin and hair) is found mainly in the epithelia. However, the stroma contains mobile pigment containers (melanosomes) in _mobile_ cells (melanophores). This gives the stromal pigment moiety a significant functional capacity. It is in fact this compartment which is in charge for changes in local and overall iris hues for substructures like contraction rings and "spikes" and stuff. Amazingly, the melanophores achieve this only by aggregation and other subtle movements which provide for different parameters in the phenomena of light dispersion, selective reflection, diffusion and diffraction which are in turn responsible for eye color. It's all about - if you like such comparisons - a versatile "grid" in a stack of fuzzy filters. Now, to go back to the question of yellow "lines", you know, lipofuscin (the wear and tear pigment) is ubiquitous in vivo. Lipofuscin is _the_ exception to the one-pigment-gives-all-hues rule. However, it only gives "green eyes" in select "combinations" with melanin. I used the quotes here because no chemical reactions occur between melanin and lipofuscin. Hope this helps, and thank you for your interesting question. --- In iridial_studies@yahoogroups.com, "hfivaz123" <hfivaz@...> wrote: > > I would like to know. > There are yellow lines in blue eyes. > What would that represent and how does a person correct it?? > | |||
