Large tumors displace the lens. Of the 3 locations in the uveal tract, tumors of the ciliary body have the worst prognosis. This enucleation specimen shows a pigmented, bilobed, dome-shaped tumor arising from the ciliary body (arrow). The lens has been removed, and a diffuse, flat retinal detachment artifact is present.

Uveal melanoma is the most common primary eye malignancy in adulthood, occurring mainly after age 60. The uveal tract — composed of the iris, ciliary body, and choroid — can be affected by uveal melanoma. Despite advances in treatment of the primary tumor, metastatic disease occurs in almost half of patients, generally affecting the liver and lungs via hematogenous dissemination of the primary tumor. Tumors have different levels of pigmentation, and some are amelanocytic (nonpigmented). The differential diagnosis for amelanotic choroidal melanoma is metastatic disease. Large tumors displace the lens. Of the 3 locations in the uveal tract, tumors of the ciliary body have the worst prognosis. This enucleation specimen shows a pigmented, nodular-shaped ciliary body melanoma (arrow) with extensive necrosis (*). A retinal detachment is present with subretinal fluid (arrowhead), and the retina is folded (•).

The anterior chamber is closed, and the angle is infiltrated (arrow). Total secondary retinal detachment with subretinal serous fluid and some subretinal hemorrhages are present (arrowhead). The lens is cataractous.

Large tumors displace the lens. Of the 3 locations in the uveal tract, tumors of the ciliary body have the worst prognosis. The enucleation specimen in (A) shows a firm, dome-shaped, deeply pigmented tumor arising from the ciliary body (arrow). The lens has been removed, and a diffuse retinal detachment artifact is present.

Pseudocolor optos fundus image of an 61-year-old male with ciliary body melanoma affecting his right eye, which tested PRAME positive placing him in class 2. The melanoma had caused a hemorrhagic retinal detachment. Patient was referred for a retinal detachment and was experiencing cloudy vision affecting his inferior field. He had been seeing flashes inferiorly 1-2x a daily for about 6-8 months.
