Arcus senilis → Corneal arcus — I propose renaming the article to "arcus corneae" or, better, "corneal arcus". If no objections are given for 2 weeks, I'll be bold. --CopperKettle 07:42, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

• Oppose — All fo the references (external links, really) use the term "Arcus senilis". If it should in fact be renamed (due to some technical reason?), then please add additional references to the article.

  Yes, but in OMIM it is called more generally, arcus corneae, with "senilis" listed as an alternative, so I thought that the more general term is more fitting cause this finding is noted in young people 23:33, 27 April 2016 (UTC)2600:8805:1000:E700:7955:ABA1:7963:8922 (talk)too. The "senilis" name may well be more prevalent, of course. Best regards, --CopperKettle 13:08, 23 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Well, if you can edit the article and include references to support that, then I wouldn't see a problem with widening the scope of the article (which is what it sounds like you're advocating). Otherwise, the current article seems to be in the correct place.

With note taken of the "Naming" discussion above, I would take issue with the description of this as "an old age syndrome". The condition exists across various age ranges (and as the second sentence states, is present in newborns). I would support using the most common name for the condition, as determined by citations from medical authorities, with the description altered to an unquestionably true statement (such as "prevalent in the elderly", or other appropriate phrase). 73.252.40.55 (talk) 01:43, 28 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

I am planning to add information the causes section about free fatty acids secondary to alcohol use, as well as a "differential diagnoses" sub header under diagnoses to clarify other conditions that have a similar appearance. the source for new information I am adding is ^[1] pre-20.03.2024
