It said it can be associated with dry eyes, which I definitely have, do you ? One of the explanations I found is “A pinguecula is caused by the degeneration of the conjuctiva’s collagen fibres.” – oh fancy that, blooming collagen causing trouble again! I wonder if increasing Vitamin C intake will help ?
The good news is that even though I had them in both eyes, they’ve gone now.

Hi Barb, That’s a bit YES on the dry eyes!!! I HAD to mention to you that pinguecula do NOT come and go. Our lumps are NOT pinguecula, hence my frustration with mine, when I couldn’t figure out what they HECK it was!!! One thing it’s not? Pinguecula. Back to the drawing board! 🙂
