In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) images showing different stromal arrangement of the deposits. (a) In children, many deposits are in the anterior stroma. (b) The posterior stroma is intact in children: few crystals and many keratocytes are visible. (c) On the contrary, few crystals are aggregated in the anterior stroma of adults, whereas (d) their posterior stroma has high crystal density
