Pterygium Excision
Welcome to Malouf Eye located in Tampa, FL. Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional eye care services, including pterygium excision surgery.
A pterygium is a benign growth of tissue that can develop on the white part of the eye, usually caused by exposure to UV light or dry and dusty environments. It can cause discomfort, redness, and in some cases, vision loss. While some pterygiums can be treated with eye drops or ointments, surgical removal may be necessary for larger or more severe cases
If you or a loved one is suffering from a Pterygium, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with Malouf Eye. We are here to help and support you in every step of your journey towards clear and healthy vision
Pterygium Excision
Our experienced ophthalmologist, Dr. Jorge Malouf, is skilled in performing pterygium excisions using the latest techniques and state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment. The surgery aims to remove the abnormal tissue and prevent regrowth. He uses an amniotic membrane graft to enhance the recovery and maximize the cosmetic appearance.
We understand that undergoing surgery can be stressful, which is why we prioritize patient comfort and safety throughout the process. Our team will take the time to fully explain the procedure and answer any questions you may have. We also use the latest equipment and techniques to minimize discomfort and ensure a speedy recovery.
Our goal is to help our patients achieve and maintain the best possible vision and eye health.
