翼状胬肉常见于热带和亚热带国家。在欧洲，地中海东岸比北方国家更容易看到翼状胬肉。他们是罕见的在英国（公爵-长者1）。根据苏斯汇编的表格[2]和庞塞特引用的表格[3]，欧洲每100名患者的翼状胬肉发病率为：哥本哈根0.23;格拉斯哥0.22;都柏林0.27;巴黎0.37;里昂0.39;那不勒斯0.38;巴塞罗那1.05;加迪斯1.87。Poncet [3]给出了以下非欧洲的数据：古巴，2.54;马德拉，10%的人口（劳伦斯[4]）;婆罗洲，庞蒂亚克，大多数居民在30到40岁之间（亚伯拉罕[5]）。我观察到，阿鲁巴岛的居民，一个离委内瑞拉北海岸约20英里的岛屿，经常受到翼状胬肉的影响。为了估计阿鲁巴翼状胬肉的发病率，对1,040名因工作和生活而不得不出门的患者进行了调查。这些数据与表1中Diponegoro和Mulock Houwer 0和Ringland Anderson 7的数据相结合。由于热带和亚热带国家的平均日日照量高于北方国家，一些作者认为太阳辐射与翼状胬肉的病因之间存在相关性。
Pterygia are frequently observed in tropi cal and subtropical countries. In Europe pterygia are seen more frequently on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean than in the northern countries. They are rare in England (Duke-Elder1). The tables com piled by Sous2 and cited by Poncet3 give the incidence of pterygia in Europe for every 100 patients: Copenhagen, 0.23; Glasgow, 0.22; Dublin, 0.27; Paris, 0.37; Lyons, 0.39; Naples, 0.38; Barcelona, 1.05; Cadiz, 1.87. Poncet3 gives the following non-European data: Cuba, 2.54; Madeira, 10 percent of the population (Lawrence4); Borneo, Pontianak, most of the inhabitants between 30 and 40 years (Abrahams5).I have observed that the inhabitants of the island of Aruba, an island lying about 20 miles off the north coast of Venezuela, are frequently affected with pterygia. To esti mate the incidence of pterygium on the island of Aruba, a survey was made of 1,040 patients whose working and living kept them out of doors. These data are combined with those of Diponegoro and Mulock Houwer0 and Ringland Anderson7 in Table 1. Because the average daily sunshine in tropical and subtropical countries is higher than in northern countries, several authors have suggested a correlation between solar radiation and the etiology of pterygium.
