Abstract


Pterygium is a triangular growth of fibrovascular tissue that extends from the conjunctiva onto the cornea. The overall prevalence rates range from 0.7-31% in various populations around the world.

Many theories have been proposed to explain the etiology of the pterygium and the pterygium is considered to be a keratoconjunctival degeneration. However, recently, the most accepted theory is that the pterygium is oonsidered to be due to limbal stem cell dysfunction.
