Eye cancer is an extremely rare condition when compared to other types of cancers. The condition occurs when healthy cells in the eyes start to grow unconditionally and form a tumor. These tumors can either be benign, meaning it won’t spread, or malignant (otherwise known as a cancerous tumor). A cancerous tumor has the ability to spread to other body parts and affect the eyelids, but mostly an eye tumor affects the eyeball that consists of the uvea, sclera, and the orbit.
