I am not a doctor but I was diagnosed of that. Use sun glasses always to reduce the growth of the disease. Uv rays enhances the growth of the disease. |

pinkpebbles:I'm not an eye specialist however you could use a little more insight : > Firstly I hope ur not mixing up a pinguecula with pingueculitis, as the latter usually arises from the former. > With respect to Outlook (prognosis), it's not a condition you necessarily outgrow. However you could be lucky if what you have is a benign (friendly) ping as compared to the slowly growing variant. > My advice is this : If you're not comfortable with the pinguecula, you may want to consider the surgical option for cosmetic reasons. For pingueculitis, an anti-inflammatory agent is more helpful. However, you should see a specialist eye doctor. |
