A 16-year-old boy developed over a 2-month interval a lightly pigmented left upper eyelid lesion measuring 1.5 mm in greatest diameter that, when excised, microscopically was hypercellular and composed almost exclusively of nonpigmented epithelioid cells that created florid, large intraepidermal junctional nests and sheets and nests of subepidermal cells. The diagnosis was a Spitz nevus.

Methods: Retrospective chart review of 67 eyes of 46 patients with spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging.
Results: The mean patient age at diagnosis was 68 years.
Purpose: To describe the clinical features and long-term ophthalmic and systemic findings in patients with sclerochoroidal calcification (SCC).
Methods: Retrospective non-interventional clinical chart review of 179 eyes of 118 patients with SCC to evaluate for the relationship of SCC with systemic calcium metabolic abnormalities.
Results: The mean patient age at diagnosis was 69 years.
Iris tumors are broadly classified into cystic or solid lesions. The cystic lesions arise from iris pigment epithelium (IPE) or iris stroma. IPE cysts classically remain stable without need for intervention.
