Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is conducted to evaluate its morphologic reproliferating patterns in patients with pterygium treated with the excision and conjunctival autograft.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The medical records of 116 eyes of 116 patients with pterygium who had pterygium excision and conjunctival autograft between February 2009 and May 2011 were reviewed. Using consecutively recorded photographs, we evaluated preoperative morphologic characteristics and its growth patterns.
