White ring in both eyes

Just discovered today a small white ring in both of my 5 yr ol male sheltie's eyes. Is this corneal dystrophy? Has anyone else seen this condition in their dogs eyes.
 
I'm not familiar with this so can't be any help, but it does seem odd that both of them would have it. I always worry about eye issues and generally go straight to the vet with any problems. Cataracts don't present like that so I can't imagine what it could be. Please keep us posted.
 
I have an appt with an ophthalmologist 30 miles away on Tuesday next for the initial consultation. I found out it is movable and floats around his eyes so it is in the mucous layer outside his cornea -that makes it better. My AI/google vets sort of "says" it is likley a Ca2+ deposit or some sort of debris but I will find out when I visit the vet I guess. It does not seem to affect him in any ways and no visual problems.

here is a web picture (I hope) of Angus's eye: you might have to enlarge it to see the ring.
