Abstract
Malignant melanoma of eyeball is a rare entity. The overall incidence of malignant melanoma is 3%–7% per year worldwide. Early detection and meticulous treatment planning and its execution are challenge to surgeons. A 38-year-old male presented with loss of visionin one eye, and after investigating, it turned out to be malignant melanoma of the eyeball. He was treated surgically by enucleation of the eyeball followed by prosthetic rehabilitation.
