Pterygium is a winged-shaped growth of pink, fleshy tissue on the surface of your eye. It’s typically noncancerous, and very easy to remove and treat, although recurrence is possible.?
It’s most commonly caused by exposure to high sun and ultraviolet light, which is why people who work outside, spend a lot of time outdoors, or live in southern areas are most affected.
