IC133 – CONJUNCTIVAL AND CORNEAL TUMORS: PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE

Dr. Swathi Kaliki [K13050] – Hyderabad

Ocular surface tumors include a variety of neoplasms arising from the squamous epithelium including squamous papilloma to malignant invasive squamous cell carcinoma, melanocytic tumors including benign nevus to malignant melanoma, and conjunctival stromal tumors including lymphoma. They are the common tumors
seen in an ophthalmology clinic and are often misdiagnosed leading to catastrophic outcomes. There are various recent advances in the diagnosis and management of ocular surface tumors including anterior segment imaging and topical treatment modalities, thus improving the accuracy of diagnosis and improving the outcomes. In this instruction course, we will discuss the clinical features, diagnostic tools, standard of care in the management, and recent advances in the diagnosis and management of conjunctival and corneal tumors. Interesting case scenarios will also be discussed.
