Conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma (A) is one of the most common ocular tumors. It is typically a unilateral tumor with slow, progressive growth and rare metastasis. Risk factors include ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure, smoking, human papillomavirus infection, and human immunodeficiency virus infection^(1)^. Treatment options may involve topical chemotherapy agents and immunomodulatory drugs like 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)(B)^(2)^. Intraocular invasion after primary treatment is uncommon and may be prevented by adjuvant brachytherapy following tumor resection (C)^(3)^.
