Hello Only treatment for pterygium is surgery.. We excuse the pterygium and cover the bare sclera with conjunctival graft This graft decreases risk of recurrence Surgery is advised if A. Pterygium is approaching pupil B. If it induces astigmatism C. For cosmetic purposes This is a simple surgery You may consult local ophthalmologist and get proper eye examination done
