What to do incase of Eye Melanoma?
Medical Treatment:
- Treatment depends on size and location of the tumor
- External radiotherapy
- Brachytherapy
- Surgery to remove the tumor or part of the eye
- Removal of the eye (enucleation) - If the tumor is large or you have lost your vision, this may be necessary; eventually your eye will be replaced with an artificial eye which matches your other eye
- Chemotherapy (rarely used)
