Home / Pterygium
Pterygium is a non-cancerous growth on the white part of the eye (conjunctiva) extending to the cornea.
Though initially harmless, it can impair vision by blocking the pupil as it grows. Excision is advised when this occurs.
It is important to note that some individuals with diabetic retinopathy may not experience any symptoms until the condition reaches an advanced stage.
