Effect of Two Different Surgical Methods on the Stability of Tear Film in the Treatment of Pterygium
Objective To comprehensively analyze the effect of two different surgical methods on the stability of pte-rygium patients.Methods One hundred patients(one hundred eyes)with pterygium admitted to the ophthalmology de-partment of Feng County People's Hospital in Xuzhou City,Jiangsu Province from January 2021 to September 2023 were selected as the study objects by target sampling method.According to different treatment methods,they were di-vided into a control group(using pterygium excision with amniotic membrane transplantation)and a study group(using pterygium excision with autologous cell transplantation),with fifty cases(fifty eyes)in each group.The total effective rate of treatment,incidence of postoperative complications(postoperative infection,anterior chamber inflammatory re-sponse,corneal edema,dry eye syndrome),postoperative wound healing time,tear film function,and refractive status were compared between two groups of patients.Results The total effective rate of the study group was 96.00%(48/50),which was higher than 82.00%(41/50)in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=5.005,P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the study group had a lower incidence of postoperative complications and a shorter wound healing time,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Before surgery,there was no statistically significant difference in tear film function and refractive status between the two groups(all P>0.05).After surgery,the tear film function and refractive status of the study group were better than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of pterygium excision and au-tologous cell transplantation is more effective in treatment of patients with pterygium,and the postoperative wound healing is faster.
