==Classification==
* [[Lymphoma]] of the conjunctiva<ref name="urlLymphoma of the Conjunctiva - The Eye Cancer Network">{{cite web|url=http://www.eyecancer.com/Patient/Condition.aspx?nID=42&Category=Conjunctival+Tumors&Condition=Lymphoma+of+the+Conjunctiva|title=Lymphoma of the Conjunctiva - The Eye Cancer Network |format= |work= |accessdate=2010-03-10}}</ref>
===Origin and location===
Eye cancers can be primary (starts within the eye) and [[metastasis|metastatic cancer]] (spread to the eye from another organ). The two most common cancers that spread to the eye from another organ are [[breast cancer]] and [[lung cancer]]. Other less common sites of origin include the [[prostate]], [[kidney]], [[thyroid]], [[skin]], [[Colon (anatomy)|colon]] and [[leukemia|blood or bone marrow]].


===Types===
* [[Melanoma]] and [[primary acquired melanosis|PAM]] with [[atypia]]<ref name="urlMelanoma and PAM with Atypia - The Eye Cancer Network">{{cite web |url=http://www.eyecancer.com/Patient/Condition.aspx?nID=37&Category=Conjunctival+Tumors&Condition=Melanoma+and+PAM+with+Atypia |title=Melanoma and PAM with Atypia - The Eye Cancer Network |format= |work= |accessdate=2010-03-10}}</ref>
{{Unreferenced section|date=September 2010}}
Tumors in the eye and orbit can be [[benign]] like [[dermoid cyst]]s, or [[malignant]] like [[rhabdomyosarcoma]] and[[retinoblastoma]].


====Malignant====
* [[Pigmented conjunctival tumors]]<ref name="urlPigmented Conjunctival Tumors - The Eye Cancer Network">{{cite web|url=http://www.eyecancer.com/Patient/Condition.aspx?nID=36&Category=Conjunctival+Tumors&Condition=Pigmented+Conjunctival+Tumors|title=Pigmented Conjunctival Tumors - The Eye Cancer Network |format= |work= |accessdate=2010-03-10}}</ref>
The most common eyelid tumor is called [[basal cell carcinoma]]. This tumor can grow around the eye but rarely spreads to other parts of the body. Other types of common eyelid cancers include [[squamous carcinoma]], [[sebaceous carcinoma]] and [[malignant melanoma]]. The most common orbital malignancy is ''orbital lymphoma''. This tumor can be diagnosed by biopsy with histopathologic and immunohistochemical analysis. Most patients with orbital lymphoma can be offered [[chemotherapy]] or [[radiation therapy]].


=====Adults=====
* [[Pingueculum]]<ref name="urlPingueculum - The Eye Cancer Network">{{cite web|url=http://www.eyecancer.com/Patient/Condition.aspx?nID=71&Category=Conjunctival+Tumors&Condition=Pingueculum |title=Pingueculum -The Eye Cancer Network |format= |work= |accessdate=2010-03-10}}</ref>
*The most common malignant primary [[wikt:intraocular|intraocular]] tumor in adults is [[uveal melanoma]]. These tumors can occur in the [[choroid]], [[Iris (anatomy)|iris]] and [[ciliary body]]. The latter are sometimes called iris or [[ciliary body melanoma]].
*The next most common is primary [[intraocular lymphoma]] (PIOL) which is usually non-Hodgkin’s, large cell lymphoma of the B-cell type, although T cell lymphomas have also been described.


=====Children=====
* [[Pterygium]]<ref name="urlPterygium - The Eye Cancer Network">{{cite web |url=http://www.eyecancer.com/Patient/Condition.aspx?nID=72&Category=Conjunctival+Tumors&Condition=Pterygium |title=Pterygium - The Eye Cancer Network |format= |work=|accessdate=2010-03-10}}</ref>
*The most common malignant intraocular tumor in children is [[retinoblastoma]], affecting approximately 325 children per year in North America. Early detection has allowed for cures exceeding 95%.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Kim JW, Abramson DH, Dunkel IJ |title = Current management strategies for intraocular retinoblastoma | journal = Drugs | year = 2007 | volume = 67 | issue = 15 |pages = 2173–2185 | pmid = 17927283}}</ref>
*The second most common is [[medulloepithelioma]] (also called diktyoma) which can occur in the ciliary body and the uvea of the eye.


====Benign====
* [[Squamous carcinoma]] and [[intraepithelial neoplasia]] of the conjunctiva<ref name="urlSquamous Carcinoma and Intraepithelial Neoplasia of the Conjunctiva - The Eye Cancer Network">{{cite web |url=http://www.eyecancer.com/Patient/Condition.aspx?nID=38&Category=Conjunctival+Tumors&Condition=Squamous+Carcinoma+and+Intraepithelial+Neoplasia+of+the+Conjunctiva+ |title=Squamous Carcinoma and Intraepithelial Neoplasia of the Conjunctiva - The Eye Cancer Network |format= |work= |accessdate=2010-03-10}}</ref>
[[Orbit (anatomy)|Orbital]] [[dermoid cyst]]s are benign [[wikt:choristoma|choristomas]] which are typically found at the junction of sutures, most commonly at the fronto-zygomatic suture. Large deep orbital dermoid cysts can cause pressure effects on the muscles and optic nerve, leading to diplopia and loss of vision.
