Small choroidal melanoma: outcomes following apical height dose brachytherapy.

CONCLUSION: Small choroidal melanomas treated with iodine-125 episcleral brachytherapy have excellent outcomes. The majority (69%) of patients retained VA of 20/50 or better with very high local control and ocular survival rate (99.3%) with the absence of metastasis (100%).
