Ibn Faris [died 1005] has stated the perception and meanings as under:

برص (مقاييس اللغة)

الباء والراء والصاد أصلٌ واحدٌ، وهو أن يكون في الشيء لُمْعَةٌ تخالف سائرَ لونه، من ذلك البرص

That its original meanings are that there exists spangle: shining spot on an object which is other than its original colour. Its example is vitiligo: a skin disorder in which smooth whitish patches appear on the skin.

Classical Lexicon: لسان العرب explains its meanings:

برص (لسان العرب)
البَرَصُ: داءٌ معروف، وهو بياض يقع في الجسد، برِصَ بَرَصاً،

That it is a well known disease. It is whitish patches located on the human body.

Lane Lexicon:
a certain disease, well known, which is a whiteness; a whiteness incident in the skin;  a whiteness which appears upon the exterior of the body, by reason of a corrupt state of constitution.
