It's advisable to have a specialized examination when a growth inside or around the eye is suspected. An eye tumor is the presence of an abnormal growth of tissue in the eye or in its neighboring structures, which can be benign or malignant.
What is it? It covers different types of growths depending on the area affected, from the surface of the eye to the tissues that surround it.
Common symptoms: changes in vision, bulging of the eye, visible spots, persistent redness, or discomfort that doesn't ease off.
