What is Pterygium and Why Should It Be Treated?
Pterygium is an abnormal growth of tissue over the cornea, commonly associated with sun exposure and dust. In addition to being a cosmetic concern, it can cause astigmatism, constant burning, and in advanced cases, obstruct vision. At Boyd Clinic, we perform corrective surgery designed not only to remove it, but to prevent it from recurring.
