Pterygium

A pterygium is a benign growth of the conjunctiva (the clear tissue of the eye). These growths can remain small; however, sometimes they will grow onto the cornea. Many times these growths are simply monitored. However, if it is starting to affect your vision it may be time to remove them. 

The doctors of Hopen & Wolfe MDs are skilled in the surgical techniques to remove pterygiums.
