Dear Editor,
Many thanks to Doctors Kerur and Kumar for providing the image of a human eye with a brown deposit at the outer border of the cornea, which is seen in Wilson disease. This clinical sign is actually known as Kayser- Fleischer ring, not Kayser-Fischer ring as indicated in the text, and is named after Bernhard Kayser (1869 - 1954) and Bruno Fleischer (1874 - 1965).
