Pterygium Surgery
Pterygium is a triangular red or pink lesion that extends from the white part of the eye towards the cornea. If the pterygium grows and reaches the center of the cornea, it obstructs vision, requiring surgical removal. Even smaller pterygium can affect vision by causing astigmatism and blurred vision due to changes in the shape of the cornea.
