4 Year Old Kid, White Patches On Eyelids And Knees. What Could Be This?

Hi, My daughter is 4 year old. She has white patches on her eye lids and in her knees. And we have been noticing these patches from past 10 - 15 days. Initially we thought it's skin tanning or her wound in her knee turned into white patched, but after reading some article we're really worried that it could be Vitiligo. Please advise....
