What are ocular tumors ????
Ocular tumors can appear on the eyelids, in the eye
(conjunctiva, choroid or retina) and in the orbit (the cavity
that houses the eyeball).

is of the essence to save vision, the eye and even
the life of the patient in the most serious cases.
There are several types of benign and malignant tumors •
that affect the eye and its different structures
Include :
1- Tumors of the Orbit
