Certain factors affect prognosis (chance of recovery) and treatment options. The prognosis (chance of recovery) and treatment options depend on the following: - How the melanoma cells look under a microscope. - The size and thickness of the tumor. - The part of the eye the tumor is in (the iris, ciliary body, or choroid). - Whether the tumor has spread within the eye or to other places in the body. - Whether there are certain changes in the genes linked to intraocular melanoma. - The patients age and general health. - Whether the tumor has recurred (come back) after treatment.
