Ocular Oncology
The ocular oncology fellowship
provides extensive experience in the diagnosis and management of ocular
tumors. The ocular oncology service examines approximately 100 new uveal
melanoma patients and 30 new retinoblastoma patients per year. The fellow
is also provided a broad exposure to the surgical management of orbit and
eyelid tumors. The environment
is designed to cultivate a greater depth of knowledge regarding the use of
radiotherapy and chemotherapy in the treatment of eye cancer.
Opportunities for both clinical and basic science research exist, and the
fellow is expected to actively design and participate in research
projects.
