Tumor diseases can be seen in every tissue except the lens in and around the eye. These tumors can be benign or malignant. Permanent vision loss can even be life-threatening. Therefore, early and accurate diagnosis is extremely important.
" don't be afraid of cancer, be afraid of being late " also applies to eye cancers.
In patients with cancer in any organ, some eye problems may occur before the diagnosis of the disease, during the disease or after treatment. It is important for these patients to consult their oncologist about eye problems and consult an ophthalmologist as soon as possible.
Ocular oncology deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye tumors and eye problems in cancer patients. It is a sub-branch of "Science of Ophthalmology".
