Article Synopsis
  • The article reviews diagnostic and treatment options for common epibulbar malignant tumors, including basal cell carcinoma, conjunctival lymphoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and conjunctival melanoma, emphasizing the need for detailed patient history and follow-up.
  • Basal cell carcinoma, the most common periocular skin tumor, is treated through total excision, while lymphomas are treated primarily with percutaneous irradiation.
