Clinical Outcomes of Sutured Versus Sutureless Conjunctival Autograft in Primary Pterygium Excision

The goal of this study is to find out if a certain technique in pterygium excision surgery ,using no sutures, is better than the technique mostly used ,which uses sutures. Investigators aim to find out whether the no sutures technique provides better efficiency and patient satisfaction than the traditional approach. They predict that if this study provides evidence of the advantages of this technique over the one used, surgeons would be encouraged to use it instead. Because not only would the patient benefit, the surgeon also may save operative time and effort used in the technique which uses sutures.

Comparison of Recurrence Between Mini-SLET and Limbal-Conjunctival Autograft Techniques in Primary Pterygium

The surgical treatment options for pterygium, an abnormal growth on the eye's frontal surface can be treated with several surgical techniques. The rates of pterygium coming back varies depending on the surgical technique employed and other factors related to the patient and surgery. The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of incorporating a single amniotic membrane with stem cells in the treatment of primary pterygium, aiming to enhance surgical outcomes and minimize recurrence rates.
