Eye cancer - daughter has been diagnosed with SCC

My adult daughter has just been diagnosed with SCC in eye and surrounding tissue. She’s had lots of eye problems in both eyes (15 corneal transplants) for many years and is currently registered blind. Now got a diagnosis of SCC just the other day. Awaiting scans to see if there is spread anywhere else in body. She would like a second opinion. Where do you start with that one?

  • Hello Jeminapuddleduck1956,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat and I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's diagnosis.

    It's important that you feel you have all the information to hand to help you navigate possible next steps. This page on types of eye cancer, including SCC of the eye, might be helpful. Also if you're considering getting a second opinion, you can find out more about this on our website. 

    I hope you don't have to wait too long for the scan results and warm regards to your daughter.
