Iris melanoma located along the peripheral iris may represent anterior extension of the ciliary body or choroidal melanoma, and therefore it is of paramount importance to examine the posterior segment in cases of iris melanoma when all iris margins of the tumors are not visualized.

Funding was obtained from the National Eye Institute. In this review we summarize the main objectives, significant design features, and major findings of the COMS.

Uveal Melanoma: Differential Diagnosis, rate, using modern diagnostic modalities, should be under 1 %. In anterior tumors involving the ciliary body and iris, there is a higher diagnostic error rate, and in some series, it still approaches 40 % [2–4]. Since choroidal lesions are much frequent than those involving either the iris or ciliary body, they are discussed first.

Even when there is a confident clinical diagnosis, biopsy may be performed to determine the tumour subtype. For example, when a choroidal metastasis is
