I noticed a while ago that Alice has these two lines in her eye are definitely NOT just the lighting reflecting in her eye. It looks like an inner circle in her pupil that appeared one day. She is not in pain, she has shown no issues but I wasn’t able to find out what this condition would be called. I’ve attached pictures, please let me know if you could name it! Thanks!

 
I'm not sure, but I would have a vet examine her for cataracts. I know some of my pigs with cataracts you could see the outline of the lens in their eye in certain lighting. Cataracts can crop up quickly too. I'm wondering if you could be seeing the edge of the lens getting thicker under certain light conditions, but I can't be sure.
