The critical role of primary care clinicians in the early detection of ocular surface squamous neoplasia [PDF]
Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) encompasses a spectrum of conjunctival tumours and, while rare globally, is the most common ocular malignancy in sub-Saharan Africa. Its rising incidence, primarily driven by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)

Ocular Surface Squamous Neoplasia
Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) are important because they mimic many common indolent lesions like pterygium and have a potential for causing ocular and systemic morbidity and mortality.
