    Abstract:
    Records of 99 patients with 100 primary eye cancers seen at the University of Alabama Hospital for the years 1958-1988 were reviewed. Three ocular cancers were found to predominate: 1) choroidal melanoma, 2) retinoblastoma, and 3) squamous cell carcinoma. Epidemiologic distribution of the population is presented and compared to that of tumors commonly seen in general ophthalmic practice.
