The incidence of pterygium in Qatar is 6.2%, which is less than expected. Laying stress on the climatic conditions, the etiological factors have been discussed. 450 cases of pterygia were operated on by a modified bare scleral technique followed by beta-irradiation. No recurrence occurred in 90% following the first operation. The final good result (98.8%) is in favour of the adopted surgical technique and post-operative care.
卡塔尔翼状胬肉的发病率为6.2%，低于预期。基于气候条件，对病因进行了讨论。450例翼状胬肉患者采用改良的裸露巩膜技术联合β射线照射进行手术。首次手术后90%的患者未复发。最终的良好效果（98.8%）证明所采用的手术技术和术后护理是有效的。
