Pathogenesis of pterygium.
Hill JC, Maske R. Hill JC, et al. Eye (Lond). 1989;3 ( Pt 2):218-26. doi: 10.1038/eye.1989.31. Eye (Lond). 1989. PMID: 2695353 Review.
The results of two epidemiological surveys undertaken in Southern Africa show that pterygium is not closely linked to other chronic actinic disorders such as pinguecula and climatic droplet keratopathy. Pterygia differ from these disorders by their vascularity which is pro …

Ultraviolet light and ocular diseases.
Yam JC, Kwok AK. Yam JC, et al. Int Ophthalmol. 2014 Apr;34(2):383-400. doi: 10.1007/s10792-013-9791-x. Epub 2013 May 31. Int Ophthalmol. 2014. PMID: 23722672 Review.
However, the evidence of the association between UV exposure and development of pinguecula, nuclear and posterior subcapsular cataract, ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN), and ocular melanoma remained limited. ...Evidence of the association between UV exposure and de …

Prevalence of pinguecula and pterygium in a general population in Spain.
Viso E, Gude F, Rodríguez-Ares MT. Viso E, et al. Eye (Lond). 2011 Mar;25(3):350-7. doi: 10.1038/eye.2010.204. Epub 2010 Dec 24. Eye (Lond). 2011. PMID: 21183945 Free PMC article.
METHODS: An age-stratified random sample of 1155 subjects 40 years was selected in O Salnes (Spain). ...CONCLUSIONS: Pinguecula is far more common than pterygium. Alcohol consumption is strongly associated with pinguecula. ...
