Hello
It seems from the history that you are having degenerative condition of the conjunctiva in the form of pterygium.
This is not a serious condition but if it is progressive or causing visual impairment it can be treated by surgical excision.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
