ABSTRACT
A 65-year-old male patient presented with a rapidly increasing mass in his left eye. It did not show any intra-ocular extension as examined by slit lamp, gonioscopy, indirect ophthalmoscopy and ultrasonography, nor there was any sign of systemic metastasis. The mass was excised completely. Buccal mucous membrane grafting was done to cover up the lower forniceal area and conjunctival autograft taken from right eye and placed over upper fornix and bulbar area. Postoperative radiotherapy was suggested. Histopathological examination of the mass revealed the diagnosis of malignant melanoma of conjunctiva.
