Best Treatment Options for Pterygium (Surfer’s Eye)

1. Conservative Management (Self-Care)

For mild cases, treatment involves:

• Lubricating eye drops for dryness relief
• Anti-inflammatory drops to reduce redness and irritation
• UV-blocking sunglasses to prevent further damage

2. The Best Eye Drop for Pterygium

Some of the best-recommended eye drops for pterygium include:

• Artificial tears (for dryness relief)
• Steroid eye drops (for inflammation)
• Lubricating gel-based drops (for overnight hydration)

3. Surgical Removal (For Advanced Cases)

In cases where the pterygium affects vision, surgical removal is recommended. The procedure involves excising the growth and using a conjunctival autograft to prevent recurrence.
