Ocular oncology, or eye cancer, encompasses the management of all tumors involving the eye, eyelid, orbit and tear, or lacrimal, glands. Ocular tumors affect adults and children, and tumors may occur in one eye or may involve both eyes.

Primary eye cancers are rare. They can occur within the eye, on the eye’s surface, in the skin cells around the eye, or in your glands that produce tears. Secondary eye cancers occur more frequently. These are tumors from other parts of the body that have spread to the eye.

Due to the complex nature of ocular oncology, our team of experienced ocular oncologists work together to treat :

  • Eyelid Tumors
  • Conjunctival Tumors
  • Corneal Tumors
  • Orbital Tumors – occurring behind the eye and pushing the eye forward.
  • Intraocular Tumors – occurring inside the eye.
