2423: should you remove the pterygium?

For this patient, should you remove the pterygium months before doing cataract surgery, at the same time as cataract surgery, or just leave it alone? What would your choice be? There is no induced astigmatism and the patient has noted that it has been there for many years. This video is part of our Complete Cataract Case series where you see videos where I am the operating surgeon and the entire case is shown start to finish.
