Description Ocular lymphoma has been rising in incidence over the past several decades. According to the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database of theNational Cancer Institute, ocular lymphoma has in-creased 1.5-fold since 1974. Part of this increase is a reflection of the three-fold increased incidence of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) of which ocular lymphoma is a manifestation. However, it may also be a reflection of the increased awareness of ocular lymphoma among the ophthalmologic community.
