  • Nice, conservative technique Sir. Thanks for commentary also, and nice music. I like this post Sir.

  • it's a pleasure watching this kind of surgery

  • i like this method , but i want to know about the recurrence rate in this type of surg.?

  • it is very good

  • I am currently researching the best method for my pterygium removal. I came accross three names. Dr Hovanesian Dr Gulani and professor Lawrence Hirst. Dr Gulani used mitomicin C which can cause further complications, so he's ruled out. Dr Hovanesian used amniotic membrane which may contain transferable viruses.Professor Lawrence Hirst of Australia uses the graft method and has had only 1 minor reccurance in over 800 consecutive pterygium surgeries. surgeons should use the best method,not easiest

  • fantastic video. u did a wonderful job

  • Too much electrocauterization...

    It may make scleromalasia and pterygial recurrence.

  • What is your percentage of recurrence w/ this technique of yours? Can you decrease recurrence w/ the further application of Mitomycin-C?
