Does a child with an eye tumor need to have their eye removed?

Patient's question:

In December 2010, a "cat eye" was found in the right eye, and an ophthalmology hospital examination was conducted. An MRI was performed, revealing a tumor in the right eye measuring 13x16x17, while no abnormalities were found in the left eye.

Doctor's answer:

Eye tumors require specific treatment plans based on their nature, size, and location, and not all cases necessarily involve eye removal. Some hospitals have successfully treated many patients who were initially at risk of losing their eyes with radiotherapy ointment. You can visit hospitals that offer these treatment options for further examination.
