High serum cholesterol levels have been accepted as a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and arteriosclerosis. There are several corneal signs that potentially indicate abnormal cholesterol levels, thus altering the eye care practitioner to refer the patient for lipid evaluation. This article describes the corneal manifestations of abnormal cholesterol levels and offers guidelines for management.
