Does White Marks In Eye Indicate Teridium?
i am 35 years old, female, i can see something white in my left eye getting nearer the black part at the center of my eye. Some of my friends told me that it s teridium while other told me it s cataract , i don t know what it s name. is there any gel or eye drop to get rid of it? or is there a need for a surgical operation for this? i would be very thankful if this query would be answered...

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having Pterigium in your eye.
In this condition white rough mass developed on sclera and spreading straight to other end of sclera (white part of eye ball )
This is definitely not in connection with cataract.
Consult ophthalmologist and get examined.
If Pterigium is there it should be removed with surgery only.
Ok and take care.
