The Effect of Pterygium and Pterygium Surgery on Corneal Biomechanics
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2017To evaluate the effect of pterygium and pterygium surgery on corneal biomechanics by ocular response analyzer (ORA, Reichert, USA).This study considered 68 eyes (from 34 patients with a mean age of 21.2±7.1 years) with unilateral nasal, primary pterygium (horizontal length 0.05).Pterygium

THE PRESENCE OF HERPESVIRUSES IN PTERYGIUM
International Journal of Oncology, 1994Pterygium is a chronic disease of unknown origin and pathogenesis. It is a vision threatening disease where surgical excision is effective. We examined surgically excised symptomatic pterygia for the presence of herpesviruses such as cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex virus (HSV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA using the polymerase chain reaction ...

The treatment of ocular pterygium has been subjected to the development and application of various new strategies in the last few years. The worrisome problem of recurrence seems to have been significantly reduced with the newer methods of treatment. The field is however, still evolving.

ABSTRACT I describe a safe, easily learned, accessible, and inexpensive method for excision of the pterygium head using the tip of a 23-gauge needle as a cutting tool. The incision is controlled precisely, and excision of unaffected tissue, particularly at the limbus, is minimized by using point cutting edge techniques and by varying tissue ...

The incidence of pterygium in Qatar is 6.2%, which is less than expected. Laying stress on the climatic conditions, the etiological factors have been discussed. 450 cases of pterygia were operated on by a modified bare scleral technique followed by beta-irradiation. No recurrence occurred in 90% following the first operation.
