Pinguecula is a benign tumor of the conjunctiva that appears as a yellowish or whitish formation on the surface of the eyeball. This pathology most often appears on the conjunctiva, especially in the nasal angle of the eye and causes minor discomfort to patients. Pinguecula is formed due to the growth of fibroepithelial cells, which tend to increase in size under the influence of various external environments, such as ultraviolet radiation, dust, and chemicals. Although pinguecula itself does not cause serious diseases, it can be a source of discomfort and precede more serious diseases in some cases, such as pterygium.<\/p>\n
