Suggest Natural Remedy For Pterygium
Pterygium - Reading that some have had success with Castor Oil on the eyelids or drops in the eyes. And others have had success with Apple Cider Vinegar diluted drops (with water). Can you comment? I'd much rather try a natural remedy than medicine whenever possible. Thanks.

Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.
I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.
I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having pterygium. As far my knowledge goes there is no natural remedy for pterygium and the eye drops will also not help in treating pterygium.
The definitive treatment for pterygium is by pterygium surgery.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Hope the information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Thank you
With regards
