Answers:
Yes, my business partner had a primary melanoma on his retina. For tonight, and until you know what you are dealing with, try to remember to breathe - I know it's very difficult not to be stressed out at a time like this (I was diagnosed with melanoma on my leg 7 1/2 years ago), but please try. You will need to go through more tests to determine IF it is melanoma and, if so, the stage (having to do with the size & thickness of the tumor), and the best course of treatment. My partner had surgery & has been recurrence-free for over 5 years with no permanent vision loss (the first couple of months after the surgery were a pain - but his biggest complaint was what it did to his golf game). There a good specialists and treatments and the important thing is that it was found & you can begin to move forward with a plan.
