Book Chapter
Tumors of the Eye
2016
Overview
Although tumors of the eye and its supporting tissues in domestic animals are relatively rare, they assume an enhanced importance because of the visibility and effect on function of even small tumors within, or adjacent to, the eyes. Melanomas of the conjunctiva are rare tumors of dogs and cats. Ocular squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is easily the most common and economically important neoplasm of the eye in cattle. Vascular endothelial neoplasms of the conjunctiva, nictitans, and even the avascular cornea are reported in several species, but they are seen most commonly in dogs, cats, and horses. Ocular melanoma in horses is often seen in conjunction with systemic melanomas and rarely is seen as a solitary spontaneous tumor separate from systemic disease. Iridociliary epithelial tumors are rare tumors, but they are the second most common primary intraocular tumor in dogs and cats. Canine uveal schwannomas of blue‐eyed dogs present as nodular nonpigmented masses of the uvea.
