Professional Pterygium
Excision & Management
Removing abnormal tissue growths with precision. We use advanced grafting techniques to clear your vision and minimize the risk of recurrence.
What is a Pterygium?
A pterygium is a non-cancerous, fleshy growth that starts on the white part of the eye (sclera) and can spread to the cornea. If left untreated, it can distort vision, cause chronic redness, and lead to permanent scarring.
Beyond Simple Removal
At Revive Nursing Home, we don't just "cut away" the growth. Simple excision often leads to the pterygium growing back. Our surgeons prefer Conjunctival Autografting—taking a small piece of healthy tissue from under the eyelid to cover the surgical site.
This biological barrier significantly reduces the chance of the growth returning and promotes a smoother, more aesthetic healing process.
