Pterygium eye growth removal
As a Cornea specialist, Dr. Michel also specializes in removing pterygium growths from surface of the eye. Dr. Michel uses an elegant no-stitch technique to replace the growth and prevent recurrence with normal tissue. The procedure is done under local anesthesia with minimal down-time. The procedure takes 20 minutes and most patients are able to return to work the next day. Removal of Pterygium growths is covered by most medical insurance carriers.
