It would be nice if someone could generate a free image of this, I have none. Navou banter 02:03, 13 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

I'll ask my Doctor if he's happy to freely license the pictures of my eyes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.168.50.59 (talk) 10:51, 25 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

The calcium is actually deposited in the inner membrane of the cornea, on the Decemet's membrane. I doubt scraping off the calcium deposits is possible in the least bit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.16.48.32 (talk) 18:41, 31 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I had an operation that was described to be as "scraping" for this. But there were probably other details that I don't remember / my family and I didn't ask about. I was in my early teens. PaulBone (talk) 00:38, 20 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

FYI, my doctor today said: "we can handle this, but the treatment has it's risks and disadvantages". Rewolff (talk) 13:37, 30 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Moved Talk-y edit: from main article, to here

edit

The following had been an edit, which (oddly) appeared under References. Here on Talk seems more appropriate. Appears to have been done in haste. Not sufficient quality for inclusion in the article. Text follows:

this is not true, it should be scraped with edta under l/a . the excess then can be washed away. it takes 5 to 10 mints in minor cases. while in dense cases it may take more than 30 mints . after this , see the surface , if it is irregular then do photoketratectomy with laser , then give bandage soft contact lens.drone5 (talk) 12:57, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
