Abstract

A case of primary ocular melanoma of the iris in a 10 year old girl is reported. Primary melanoma of the eye is exceedingly rare in childhood. The incidence and risk factors for ocular melanoma are discussed and possible reasons why this tumour is so uncommon in younger age groups are considered.
