Eyes on Pterygium: How to Protect and Preserve Your Vision

[@fuzzball4258]

I’ve had a “freckle” on my eye for years. My ophthalmologist calls it a freckle. Look brown. Weird.

The brown spot on your eye may be a pterygium, a growth of pink, fleshy tissue on the conjunctiva, often caused by exposure to ultraviolet light. While it might resemble a freckle, it's crucial to monitor any changes and consult with your ophthalmologist regularly. If you notice alterations in size, shape, or color, or if it causes discomfort, inform your eye care professional promptly. Regular eye check-ups are essential to ensure the health of your eyes and detect any abnormalities early on.

Can pterygium result to a lazy eye . Coz i have pterygium with a lazy eye too

[@MedicalCentric]

While pterygium can cause visual discomfort and irritation, it typically doesn't directly result in a lazy eye. However, it's crucial to consult an eye care professional to address any vision concerns, including the lazy eye, which may have separate underlying causes.
