Conjunctival Tumors

Conjunctival tumors are growths that occur on the conjunctiva, the thin tissue covering the white part of the eye and the inner eyelids. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Symptoms may include changes in the appearance of the eye, irritation, or discomfort. Early detection is crucial, as some malignant tumors can spread. Treatment options vary based on the type and severity and may include monitoring, surgical removal, or other therapies. Regular eye check-ups can help identify these issues early and ensure appropriate care.
