Corneal autofluorescence in choroidal melanoma or in choroidal naevus

Aims—To investigate whether corneal autofluorescence is diVerent in patients with choroidal melanoma or choroidal naevus. Methods—Corneal autofluorescence was determined by fluorophotometry in both eyes of 32 patients with a unilateral choroidal melanoma, 32 patients with a unilateral choroidal naevus, and 32 age matched healthy controls. The corneal autofluorescence ratio between aVected and contralateral eyes of patients or between randomly selected eyes of healthy controls was calculated
