The inset indicates the level of the scan. c Slit lamp photograph of the right eye after 2 months of oral doxycycline 100 mg twice a day. The pterygium (arrow) remains unchanged while the nasal BRLH lesion (asterisk) has decreased in size and appears flatter and smaller. d High resolution anterior segment OCT confirms the reduced size of the nasal BRLH lesion (asterisk) after 2 months of oral doxycycline.
