Short Description

Market Definition:
Pterygium is a common ocular surface lesion that begins in the limbal conjunctiva within the palpebral fissure and progresses to the cornea. It is named after the Greek word pterygos, which means "wing". The lesion occurs more frequently at the nasal limbus than the temporal with a characteristic wing-like appearance. UV exposure is strongly linked to the occurrence of pterygia. Individuals having a history of elevated UV exposure and those living closer to the equator have a higher incidence (outdoor work). According to certain research, males have a somewhat higher incidence than females, which could be due to a higher rate of UV exposure.
It can cause redness, inflammation, and a change in the look of the eye; it can create astigmatism, which can cause blurry vision; and it can cause a whitish or pinkish growth covering the front of the eye. It could affect one or both eyes.
Pterygium is diagnosed using a microscope to examine the front components of the eye during a full eye examination and based on the appearance of tissue growth on the cornea from the white area of the eye.
