        a doctor on that show this morning said that there was nothing to be done about ocular melanoma.  he is wrong!  i elected to have them remove my right eye.  of course, i caught it at stage one.  it was totally encapsulated.  i was 23 and very lucky.  i don't know how old you are, or the details of your case, but don't give up.

         

        losing an eye is nothing.  believe me.
