Pterygium surgery, also known as pterygium excision or pterygium removal, is a medical procedure performed to remove a pterygium, which is a benign growth of tissue on the conjunctiva (the clear membrane that covers the white part of the eye) that can extend onto the cornea (the clear front surface of the eye). Pterygiums are often triangular or wing-shaped and can cause discomfort, redness, irritation, and visual disturbances if they grow large enough to encroach onto the cornea.
