Abstract

A careful examination of the conjunctiva and ocular adnexa should be performed as part of a complete dermatologic examination. This article reviews the clinical presentation and classification of pigmented lesions of the conjunctiva. The histologic features of these conjunctival lesions are compared with those of pigmented lesions of the skin.
