After one year my eye is still 100% healed, I am so happy that I had the surgery. It was 6 years of waiting for my doctor to give the okay to have the excision. He stated at the time I was still too young to have the surgery. At the first diagnosis in 2006 I was 34 years old.
My doctor stated the possibilities of a return of the pterygium to the same eye was too great of a chance to come back and regrow. However, by 2012 it started affecting my peripheral vision and my 20-10 vision.
Today I am 100% cured after the pterygium excision, and no signs of regrowth.

ReplyDeleteCan you tell me how long it took for the redness to go away completely? Or when you felt like your eye returned to a normal appearance? I know you posted a 6 month photo. Is that how long it took?
