ABSTRACT
Forty cases of ophthalmic lesions were subjected to fine needle aspiration cytology for pre-operative diagnosis which included retinoblastomas (5 cases), inflammatory and neoplastic lesions of the eyelid and lacrimal glands (29 cases) and extra-ocular orbital lesions (6 cases) inclusive of 3 cases of rhabdomyosarcomas. The lesions were distributed in both the eyes almost in equal proportions. Histological confirmation was obtained in 85% of cases; false positive in only one case with malignant neoplasm of the eyelid and false negative also in only one case with inflammatory pseudotumour which were, histologically, proved to be adenoma of tarsal gland and lymphocytic lymphoma respectively.
