Eye cancer: Cancer can be primary in the eye arising from almost any of the internal eye tissues or metastatic from another source - principally breast and prostate. If you suspect cancer in your eye, see an ophthalmologist as soon as possible.

Eye cancer: The list is very long-- it includes, but is not limited to-- retinoblastoma, melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, rhabdomyosarcoma. Some eye cancer has a relatively good prognosis, especially if picked up early. Some eye cancer can be fatal.
