      Really hoping I can find help here.

      My mom is diagnosed with Stage 1B, melanoma. Miotic rate 1mm. Breslow – 1 mm. Her primary tumor is on her face, near her right eyebrow /eye. She had a wide excision to remove it, then a biopsy on it. Biopsy came back positive and doctors said there is bit of left over tissue that needs to be removed. She is scheduled for another surgery next week. Her first surgery and the biopsy was about 2-3 weeks ago. 

      She is complaining of her red eye being itchy now and looks like it's increasingly bothering her. Looks like there is slight swelling as well. This is reported information since she lives across the sea from me. I had her send me a picture, the eye otherwise seem fine to me. Nothing really to catch in the pics.

      i asked her to go back to th doctor tomorrow to discuss. But I was wondering if anyone ever experienced this and has any guidance or advice. Thanks!

          It's the right eye that's itchy. I mistyped as red eye in the post.

            They are symptoms of melamona some bodies can't resist them, sometimes effect skin, eyes and other areas. This could also be pigment cells with malignant in the eye grow out of control.
