Pterygium Removal Surgery
Pterygium Removal Surgery is performed to excise a benign, wing-shaped growth from the conjunctiva that extends onto the cornea.
The procedure relieves irritation, redness, and cosmetic concerns while restoring a smooth, healthy ocular surface.
Modern surgical techniques minimize recurrence and promote faster recovery.
Overview And Clinical Background
Safe removal of eye surface growth
A pterygium often develops from chronic UV exposure or dust irritation.
Surgery involves removing the growth and covering the area with a conjunctival autograft to prevent regrowth.
Symptoms, Signs And Presentation
Patients typically report redness, burning, or a visible whitish growth on the eye.
In severe cases, it may distort vision.
Diagnosis Methods And Investigations
Clinical and visual assessment
Diagnosis is mostly clinical with slit-lamp examination confirming the extent and corneal involvement.
Treatment Options And Surgical Techniques
Surgery is indicated when symptoms worsen or vision is compromised.
Advanced grafting methods ensure lasting results and minimal recurrence.
Recovery, Risks And Prognosis
Patients recover in 1–2 weeks with minimal discomfort.
Regular follow-ups prevent recurrence and ensure excellent cosmetic outcomes.
