State-of-the-Art in Eye Cancer

Dear Colleagues,

Ocular oncology is a multidisciplinary field in which advances in imaging, radiotherapy, genetic and molecular understanding are combined to improve clinical outcomes. New imaging technologies, for example, give rise to the development of new strategies for ocular radiotherapy,  reducing post-treatment side effects. Meanwhile, the discovery of new genetic factors, such as the BAP1 tumor predisposition syndrome, has resulted in new clinical screening guidelines. Through these multidisciplinary efforts, our understanding and management of eye cancers, ranging from the eyelids and globe to the complete orbit, have significantly improved in recent years.

In this Special Issue of Cancers, the state of the art in eye cancer will be presented, with  special attention paid to the translation of scientific research between the different disciplines involved in ocular oncology.
