A pinguecula is a yellowish, elevated development that develops on the conjunctiva, the clear tissue covering the white component of the eye. At Eye Facility South, our cornea specialists are experienced in detecting and dealing with pinguecula to ensure your eyes remain healthy and comfortable.

For patients who experience severe signs or cosmetic problems, the elimination of a pinguecula might be suggested. The treatment is carried out under neighborhood anesthetic and involves excising the development with accuracy to protect bordering healthy cells.
