This is the most common tumour affecting the bovine eye worldwide. It occurs in non-pigmented third eyelids, e.g. in Herefords, and is more prevalent in the tropics. If the condition is noticed early enough the third eyelid can be cut off with sharp scissors under sedation and local anaesthetic blocks. Provided the tumour can be removed totally leaving a margin on the third eyelid the prognosis is good. Otherwise, enucleation is required.
