Abstract
Effectiveness of multiple subconjunctival bevacizumab injections in advanced primary pterygium was studied the first time. Treatment produced regression of pteryium and improvement of best-corrected visual acuity from 20/100 to 20/60 at 6-mont follow-up. Off-label short-term use of sbconjunctival bevaciumab is effective.
