I have just been diagnosed with pingueculitis. I am 42 years old, and this has been most uncomfortable. I have a sensation of a foreign body in the eye. Also, it is very unsightly. My doctor has me currently using artificial tears. This has helped with the redness, but I am very worried. I can't seem to find out if anyone has successful surgeries for this, or if the risk of scaring is too great. Right now I don't know how I could function with this forever. Any feedback would be appreciated. I know I have some steps to take in finding relief from this.
