Hi, my mom has been having a problem with her right eye. The white of her eye looks like loose skin..sort of folded up. I ve read up on it a little bit and I m sure it s nothing serious but I was wondering if there were perhaps any treatments you might recommend for it?

Hi,

Sounds to be something like pterygium. It needs expert opinion of an ophthalmologist followed by suitable management.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
