Suggest Alternate Treatment To Glasses For Pterygium

Is teridium can be cured by an eyedrop? I am 48 yrs old, single, stands 5 3 and weighs more or less 90 lbs. Recently i was diagnosed to have teridium ( I don t know the exact spelling) on both eyes and was advised to wear eyeglasses. But the problem on me is that I am not at ease having glasses in my eyes. Is there any other option in treating the teridium?

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are having pterygium and the treatment of this condition is by surgical excision of the pterygium.
Hence you need to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
