Group, I can not take credit for the photos. My coworker Katie Lachut took the 
nice photos of this guy.

It definitely meets the definition of a “fascinoma”! Nice photos. You should

Judging by the medications he's on, it seems like he's had a kidney transplant. 
Could be conjunctival and corneal calcification due to chronic renal failure?

Mike had a great idea about this being presented in the Rare Case symposium

Wilson’s Disease is a good diagnosis –  it causes the buildup in the Descemet's 
Membrane too – but you said it was part of Bowmans?
