Ocular Oncology and Pathology


Males between the ages of 60 and 65 are most likely to develop malignant melanoma. Melanoma is caused by uncontrolled growth of cells called melanocytes. Ocular oncology is an extremely specialized field of ophthalmology.  In ocular oncology, general oncologists, pediatric oncologists, specialist nurses, clinical scientists, and many others are involved. Those most frequently observed malignancies are uveal and conjunctivitis melanoma, uveal metastasis, intraocular, conjunctiva carcinoma, and conjunctiva lymphoA diagnosis is made by biomicroscopy, angiography, optical coherence tomography, ultrasonography, and autofluorescence imaging. Naive, chordal haemangiomas are the most common type of tumor.  Treatment and/or observation are usually required for these lesions. The treatment of eyelid and orbital tumors is available from oculoplastic and orbital specialists.
