Description

This detailed anatomical image illustrates Stage I of pterygium. The lesion is seen as a slightly raised, translucent area extending from the nasal conjunctiva toward the limbus. At this early stage, the pterygium is confined to the conjunctiva and has not yet reached the central visual axis, posing minimal interference with vision. Surrounding anatomical features, including orbital fat and extraocular muscles, provide essential context for understanding the eye’s structural relationships. This visualization is ideal for educational use, highlighting early pathological changes and guiding diagnostic awareness.
