    The chance of spread is a lot greater if you have the eye removed versus plaque radiation surgery I have definitely seen that it spreads quicker more often and faster and people that do not keep their eye the plaque radiation kills the cancer cells when they remove your eye 15 years later, there are still cancer cells in the socketI am sorry everyone that has horrible disease and everyone has passed away

    Thank you for sharing your experience with ocular melanoma! If you don’t mind I’d appreciate the names or clinic in Tampa where you had your care. I have a “freckle” on my retina that has been followed with yearly or twice yearly specialist visits. The freckle has not changed for around 10 years. May want a second opinion as I have a second diagnosis now of mild macular degeneration.

Then after that (right before Christmas) I was in a tragic accident and nearly lost the whole eye. I still don’t know if I’ll lose the whole thing. But the eyeball does not hurt. Anyway I think you are a hero and hope you keep up the brilliant work.

    Thank you for this! There is a bad echo, as you know. I was diagnosed in September 2023 and it was already a large tumor. By the time I got to Wills Eye hospital, Oct 19, 2023 it had taken over much of my eye and they had to enucleate my eye. I am doing the same now. I am always bumping into walls and knocking things off counters and making spills. This is why I don’t drive. I’m afraid to hurt someone.

    Life is uncertain. I now have two certainties: I have a recently treated OM and I can still see. I had to get beyond the regret of not insisting on a biopsy but two years ago, it may not have been melanoma. On expert analysis over a 2 year period my case was in the watch and wait mode as the growth didn’t look or act like an OM . When “it” changed so did my life. I pray to be useful in this journey.
