Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 5-year-old patient with acquired heterochromia, which led to the diagnosis of pediatric ciliary body melanoma. The study discusses the clinical presentation, diagnostic procedures, and prognosis of uveal melanoma in pediatric patients, highlighting the rarity of the condition and its more favorable prognosis compared to adult cases.
