1. Plaque brachytherapy
A radioactive plaque is placed on the surface of the tumor to deliver precise radiation, destroy cancer cells, and spare surrounding healthy tissue.
2. Proton therapy
High-dose radiation is precisely concentrated on the tumor, with minimal damage to deeper normal tissues, making it suitable for tumors near critical structures.
3. Cryotherapy
Extremely low temperatures are used to rapidly freeze and destroy abnormal tissue, and this may be used for small ocular surface tumors and retinoblastoma in selected cases.
4. Photodynamic therapy
After administration of a photosensitizer, laser activation selectively damages the tumor, and this may be used for certain intraocular tumors.
5. Interventional therapy
Chemotherapy can be delivered through catheterization of the ophthalmic artery, achieving high local drug concentration with fewer systemic side effects.
6. Stereotactic radiosurgery / highly precise image-guided radiotherapy
High-precision radiotherapy technologies can track and target tumors accurately, improving treatment precision while limiting side effects in selected cases.
7. Chemotherapy
Intravenous chemotherapy or intravitreal chemotherapy may be used to kill rapidly proliferating tumor cells, especially in advanced or high-risk patients.
8. Targeted drug therapy
Targeted agents, such as anti-VEGF therapy in selected settings, may inhibit abnormal vascular activity and help control tumor-related complications.
9. Tumor resection
Localized tumors may be surgically removed while aiming to preserve as much healthy ocular tissue and visual function as possible.
Jinshazhou Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine emphasizes that eye cancer is a malignant disease that may severely impair vision and even threaten life. The ultimate goals of treatment are preservation of life and visual function. Achieving these goals depends on early diagnosis and standardized whole-course management. It is therefore essential to enhance public awareness, promote early screening and diagnosis, and establish individualized multidisciplinary treatment plans.
