Pterygium Surgery

Pterygium surgery is a safe and effective procedure to remove abnormal tissue growth from the eye's surface, restoring comfort and improving vision. Modern surgical techniques help reduce recurrence and promote faster healing with excellent cosmetic results.

Overview

Pterygium, commonly known as "Surfer's Eye," is a benign growth of conjunctival tissue that extends onto the cornea. It can cause redness, irritation, blurred vision, and cosmetic concerns. Pterygium surgery involves carefully removing the growth and, when necessary, placing a conjunctival autograft to minimize the risk of recurrence. Our experienced cornea specialists use advanced microsurgical techniques to ensure safe treatment, rapid recovery, and optimal visual outcomes.
