Tear break-up time in eyes with pterygia and pingueculae in Ibadan
West African Journal of Medicine, 2005 Ultraviolet (UV) rays and chronic irritation to dust have been implicated in the pathogenesis of degenerative conditions of the cornea and conjunctiva like pterygium and pinguecula. It has been postulated that exposure to these environmental factors cause corneal and conjunctival drying by disruption of the tear film.
