What is a nevus? How did I get it? Can if affect my vision? How likely will the nevus change into a melanoma? How does my doctor know it is benign? Should I have it biopsied or treated? In this webinar, I will also show you how it is possible to easily monitor your own choroidal nevus, alongside your eye-care provider. Know when you need to get additional testing, be referred, or to get a second opinion. Welcome to Finding Your Way with Ocular Melanoma, a guide to understanding everything there is to know about your experience with this rare cancer. Learn through the lens of my knowledge and clinical experience as a physician expert and passionate patient advocate.
