Abstract
Purpose: A retrospective study conducted to evaluate the profile of patients with conjunctival and epibulbar lesions who underwent surgical excision with or without ocular surface reconstruction. Setting: This study included 126 patients of either sex diagnosed to have benign and malignant tumors of conjunctiva, eyelid and orbit who were subjected to excision biopsy. Materials and Methods: A retrospective chart review of all patients treated between 2009 to 2015 was done. Only those patients whose clinical diagnosis was confirmed by histopathology examination were included. Results: Of the 126 patients 66(552.38%) were males and 60(47.62%) were females with mean age 40.77 years (1-80years). In a total 126 patients conjunctival tumors were found in 46(36.50%), lid lesions in 53(42.06%) and orbital lesions in 27(21.42%).
