Association of net pterygium tissue mass (dryweight) in determining changes in oculovisual functions and anterior corneal curvature relative to pterygium types
Introduction: Dryweight in pterygium is more towards the fleshy appearance of the fibrous tissue. Aim: The goal of this study was to determine the predictive ability of net pterygium tissue mass (dryweight) on predicting changes in anterior corneal cur-vature and oculovisual functions relative to pt...

Introduction: Dryweight in pterygium is more towards the fleshy appearance of the fibrous tissue.

Methodology: A total of 93 primary pterygium patients who visited an ophthalmology clinic were selected as participants. The net pterygium tissue mass were obtained via freeze dry method sub-sequent to pterygium excision using fibrin glue adhesive method. Best corrected visu-al acuity (BCVA) and contrast sensitivity function (CSF) were measured by using M&S Smart System II as measurement for oculovisual function, while the changes of ante-rior corneal curvature was measured using corneal topography. Results: The mean and standard deviation for BCVA, CSF and SimK were 0.44 ± 0.30 LogMAR, 24.28 ± 17.66 % and 4.64 ± 4.18 D respectively.
