Is the pterygium interfering with your field of vision?
Have you had a consultation yet?
Do you know at what facility you would have the surgery?
Fees would change based on the specific problem that you have and the extent of the surgery necessary to correct it. Your opthalmologist would perform a comprehensive eye exam and could communicate with the insurance company before surgery to determine whether it would be considered cosmetic or medically necessary.
It's possible that some who have had the surgery will read this and let us know what it cost them.
