What does it mean if there is a yellow ring around your pupil?

Well, I know there is an episode of House (season 1) that deals with something like this.

I've heard that high cholesterol can be a contributing factor to a ring, but it is usually found in people over 40. However, it can still occur in younger people. An ophthalmologist would know better than me, of course. :)


Another factor I've heard of that could cause a ring has something to do with liver damage. Not to be the cause of alarm, but it is something worth considering if the yellow band is concentrated or if it expands.

Good luck!

It basically says that it is due to unequal distribution of pigment in the eye and is normal, more common in people with blue and brown eyes.

Wilsons disease is the condition scripted into house, it is caused by the bodys inabilty to bind copper. The copper builds up in the liver and kidneys and damages them. copper rings are seen around the iris, not the pupil, due to their deposition. And there is no mistaking copper for yellow in these cases so dont worry :)

Why did Mormons move out of New York?

In the first year of it's organization, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called the "Mormons") moved it's headquarters from Palmyra, New York to Kirtland, Ohio. This is because missionaries sent to Kirtland had converted so many that there were more members in Kirtland than in Palmyra.
The main body of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) moved from New York to Ohio in 1831, where Church headquarters was located until 1838. Many groups moved from Ohio to Missouri between 1832 and 1838, when an extermination order forced them from Missouri as well. In 1838 to 1845, most Mormons and Church headquarters was located in Illinois. After their prophet was killed in 1844, the local government asked the Mormons to leave in order to avoid further violence. They left in 1845, stayed several months to prepare and gather supplies in Nebraska, and moved on to Utah in 1847.

Each move the Mormons made was in search of a place where they could practice their religion in peace. Each place they went they were hated, persecuted, even robbed and sometimes killed in an effort to get them to leave.

How did the Mormons prepare for the move west?

Many didn't. Disease was rife, and many died from the cold.

Those who survived, were the lucky ones.
