| Description |
Ocular lymphoma has been rising in incidence over thepast 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 areflection 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. |
