Some signs of high cholesterol show up in your body
People could be unaware they're at risk of having high cholesterol level - .and millions could be affected. Experts have warned. Cholesterol doesn't typically cause symptoms which makes it almost impossible to spot.
GP and TV Doctor Dr Rachel Ward said a sign of the condition can show up next to your eyes. "If you have white or yellow lumps near the eyelids or nose this could be a sign of high cholesterol," Dr Rachel told The Sun. Arcus senilis can be another symptom. The condition is known as arcus senilis and is visible around the coloured part of the eye, the iris. It may cause a blue, white or light grey ring to form around the outside of the front of the eye. The condition may start at the top or bottom of the cornea but over time it will form a full ring.
