    Description
    63 year old male with new choroidal melanoma. Pt states vision has been poor for 2 years, worsening in the last year. Bscan ultrasound shows lesion extends into the macula up to the optic nerve. Recommended enucleation due to size of lesion (7.7 x 15.6 x 15.2) and poor prognosis of visual recovery. Surgery will be scheduled pending CT scan results.
