Pterygium Surgery- at Drishtideep
A pterygium is a raised triangular thickening that extends over the eye’s surface which is formed by excessive conjunctival degeneration mostly among individuals subjected to wind, sun, sand, and dust. Pterygium Surgery involves removal of such non malignant tissue from visual axis of the eye.
The success rate for modern surgical methods is much higher than traditional ones. Failure to treat this problem may affect both eyes, for this benign disorder. At Drishtideep Eye Institute, we offer top quality pterygium surgery that is both secure and productive.
Pterygium Surgery Clinic - Get the Treatment from the best surgeon
On your visit to the Drishtideep eye institute, you get complete information during the consultation regarding the process. Before considering pterygium surgery, it is vital to get a thorough eye exam. A visual acuity test, slit-lamp examination, corneal topography are all parts of the examination. The surgery is scheduled only if the outcomes of these tests indicate that it is a safe option for treating pterygium.
Most surgeries are done as outpatient procedures under topical and local anesthesia. The area from where the pterygium is removed is replaced with a little piece of skin cut from beneath the eyelid. Such autologous transplantation prevents recurrence. Radiation therapy and use of "antimetabolite" chemicals, which stop tissue growth, are other such approaches that pterygium surgeons have employed over the years to reduce the probability of pterygium recurrence.
Understanding the Process of Pterygium Treatment
Once the treatment is completed, the eye will be patched temporarily to reduce leftover bleeding. You will wear this patch over your eyes until one day after surgery. Within the first few days, patients can resume typical activities like driving and attending school. It will take several weeks for complete healing. To avoid infection, lessen inflammation, and lower the chance of recurrence, patients are also urged to use antibiotics for the first one to two months. The surgeon will provide right consultation before the pterygium treatment.
