What Is The White Stuff Growing On My Pupil?

Hi, there's white stuff growing on my pupil. First it started as a small white patch beside my pupil, which i thought would fade away but now it's spreading towards the pupil of my right eye. How do I get rid of it? Please advice.........

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having a white growth over the cornea.
This indicates a probable conjunctival degeneration in the form of pterygium.
The definitive treatment for pterygium is by surgery in the form of excision and conjunctival grafting.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
