Listen to pronunciation. (YOO-vee-ul MEH-luh-NOH-muh) A rare cancer that begins in the cells that make the dark-colored pigment, called melanin, in the uvea or uveal tract of the eye. The uvea is the middle layer of the wall of the eye and includes the iris, the ciliary body, and the choroid.
The diagnosis of uveal melanoma is based primarily on clinical examination by biomicroscopy and indirect ophthalmoscopy. In contrast to the basic principles of oncology, histological or cytologic evaluation is not routinely used in the diagnosis of intraocular neoplastic lesions.

Ocular melanoma or, more specifically, uveal melanoma is a the most common primary intraocular (within the eye) cancer in adults. It is a disease in which cancer (malignant) cells are found in the part of the eye called the uvea. The uvea contains cells called melanocytes.
Choroidal melanoma is a subtype of uveal melanoma. Uveal melanomas can be divided into two categories: (1) anterior uveal melanomas, in which the tumor arises in the iris, and (2) posterior uveal melanomas, in which the tumor arises in either the choroid or the ciliary body.
General Discussion. Ocular melanoma is an extremely rare form of cancer that affects the eye with an incidence of 5 per million adults. Although rare, it is the most common primary cancer of the eye in adults.

Relative survival rates The observed survival proportions of patients with uveal melanoma were 97% at 1 year after plaque brachytherapy. 73% at 5 years after plaque brachytherapy, 55% at 10 years, 43% at 15 years, 31% at 20 years, 23% at 25 years, 19% at 30 years, 16% at 35 years and 14% at 40 years.
Uveal melanoma (also called ocular melanoma) is a cancer that forms in the eye. Although rare, this malignancy is often fatal when it spreads to other parts of the body, which happens in about half of all cases.
There is no known cause, though incidence is highest among people with lighter skin and blue eyes. Approximately 50% of patients with OM will develop metastases by 10 to 15 years after diagnosis (a small percentage of people will develop metastases even later i.e. 20-25 years after their initial diagnosis).
