In this work, the manifestations of ocular irritation associated with vicryl 8/0 sutures fixed conjunctival auto-graft in pterygium patients were evaluated. The severity of post-operative foreign body sensation, pain, and watering was subjectively evaluated. The localized nasal quadrant conjunctival hyperemia was also evaluated. It was found that sutures fixed conjunctival auto-graft can be used safely with short-term minimal to moderate tolerable manifestations of ocular irritation with no significant complications.
