Pterygium surgery with conjunctival autograft

Pterygium surgery in five minutes. Made in Colima, Col. Mexico by Dr. José Alejandro Lozano Viera. Using the technique of conjunctival autograft. Local anaestesia. This video its to show to people interested in this issue, and not to scare people about eye surgery. The results of this technique are good enough to be used as Standard in modern pterigium surgery.

i just had conjuctiva removed from my eye as well, but i dont think any autograft was involved. As far as i know, these stitches are supposed to dissolve soon, but there is discomfort.

@ThisGuyUnderMeIsGay Ask for your doctor.

My opinion is to go back to your eye doctor and tell him all your questions. If he can't solve then it's time to ask for another point of view with other eye doctor.

The best option is to make an appointment with your eye doctor. This place its not to give counseling in eye diseases. It's to show how the surgery is made.

Oh my dear loorddd D: I have a thing in my eye that looks like a Pinguecula and people say it might turn into this. and if it does affect my vision, I have to get surgery. I still want to get rid of it anyway because it looks unpleasing and when people ask me "What's in your eye?" or "I think there is some dust in your eye" GAH I want it gone! But after seeing the comments (complaints, actually..) and the video it makes me want to keep it there.. (I mean I have no vision problems...)

@alovi My husband had his small pterygium removed in a doctors office. After three weeks his eye was still red and bothering him. So we went back and the doctor said he had grown a cyst so he removed it. It"s been a week and doesn't look good, his eye is still red, he has a little ball towards the top of the eyelid, and he sees blurry. He also gave him eye drops that don't seem to do anything. Is this normal or should I go to another doctor? Does anyone know?

I had this done on Nov 23, 20120 and still dealing with it. The grafts fell. I had to go into surgery on Dec 8 to get them stitched and one of them fell and I have to go in today Dec 17, again to get the left graft stitched again. WTF!!!
