Metastasis to the eye can involve the choroid (90%), ciliary body (2%), iris (8%), and retina, optic disc, vitreous, and/or lens capsule (<1-4%). The mean number of uveal metastasis per eye (1.7), mean tumour base (11.6 mm) and thickness (3.2 mm), tumour colour (86% yellow), and presence of subretinal fluid (72%), are all clinical features suggestive of the diagnosis. Imaging with ultrasonography demonstrates an echodense mass (80%) and optical coherence tomography shows a "lumpy bumpy" choroidal surface (64%), both important diagnostic features. Uveal metastases typically emanate from primary cancer of the breast (37%), lung (27%), kidney (4%), gastrointestinal tract (4%), cutaneous melanoma (2%), lung carcinoid (2%), prostate (2%), thyroid (1%), pancreas (1%), and other sites (3%). Occasionally, fine needle aspiration biopsy is employed if the primary site is not known. In 16% of cases, the primary site remains unknown. Rarely, metastases affect the retina, vitreous, and lens capsule, most often originating from cutaneous melanoma and in patients previously treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Kaplan-Meier analysis in a series of 1111 patients with uveal metastasis revealed 32% survival at 3 years and 24% at 5 years. Patients with uveal metastasis from carcinoid tumour showed most favourable survival at 5-years (92%), whereas pancreatic and kidney cancer demonstrated least favourable survival (0%). The 5-year survival was better for females (versus (vs.) males) (31% vs. 21%) and older adults (vs. children) (40% vs. 0%). In this review, we examine several large-cohort publications on the topic of ocular metastasis.
