Estimating malignancy risk of melanocytic choroidal tumours detected in the Australian National Eye Health Survey

Omar Salehi et al.

Summary: The MOLES system categorizes ocular tumors based on specific characteristics and recommends different levels of follow-up or referral based on the score. A nationally representative population survey in Australia found that the majority of choroidal nevi are common nevi, suggesting that most nevi can be managed in primary eye care without specialist referral.

Summary: The study shows that the MOLES scoring system has high sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing melanocytic choroidal tumors, but it needs to be evaluated when used by ophthalmologists and community optometrists in various working environments.
