Summary

The purpose of this randomized multi-center clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of intraoperative mitomycin C(MMC),amniotic membrane transplantation(AMT) and Conjunctival Autograft(CAG) for primary pterygium surgery. The investigators will also evaluate particular risk factors related to pterygium recurrence.

Conditions

  • Pterygium

Interventions

PROCEDURE

MMC

Standardized cotton soaked in mitomycin C (0.02%) will be applied underneath conjunctiva for 5 minutes after pterygium excision.

PROCEDURE

AMT

Amniotic membrane transplantation will be applied to cover the conjunctival defect after pterygium excision.

PROCEDURE

CAG

A conjunctival autograft, harvested from the superior bulbar conjunctiva of the operating eye, will be applied to cover the conjunctival defect after pterygium excision.

PROCEDURE

Pterygium excision

Pterygium head, minimal conjunctiva and anterior tenon's capsule underneath will be removed in the excision of pterygium tissue.
