Types of Pterygium

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

The pterigium may be large or small, wide or narrow, more or less swollen but the shape is quite characteristic. The vast majority of times we see it located on the inside of the eye (on the nose). He is always on the horizontal axis, or coming from the left or right but never up or down.

The injury that eventually leads to pterygium called pinguecula and consists of a degeneration of conjunctival tissue that is aa the izuierda or right of the cornea. It is believed to be due, at least in part, to sun exposure. Often goes unnoticed and is seen as a somewhat elevated, yellowish nodule. You can have one or two pingueculae and have no symptoms ever.

In most cases their growth is self-limited and is really small. Sometimes the pterygium may become red and cause irritation and discomfort. Only cases of significant inflammation or when grown dangerously toward the center of the cornea is treated surgically as it alters vision.

what is the Pterygium?

Pterygium is a very common ocular abnormality. It is known as “nail” or “palm” but its technical name is pterygium. In the ocular surface is the cornea and conjunctiva. Between the cornea and conjunctiva is a fairly sharp boundary, the shape of a circle. Inside she found the cornea has no blood vessels and is transparent so you usually do not appreciate. Outside the circle is the conjunctiva that has blood vessels and we see white.

The pterygium see it as a kind of “invasion”. The conjunctiva invades the cornea, is a tip of conjunctival tissue that grows bigger from the outside of the cornea toward the center. These cells and blood vessels from the conjunctiva that are introduced, invading and placed in front of the cornea. Typically it is a kind of wedge or triangle with the apex pointing towards the pupil. Because the cornea is normally invisible seems that mounts on the iris but actually located in the cornea.
