Malignant melanoma of conjunctiva: Diagnosis on fine-needle aspiration cytology

We present a case of a 63-year-old female with previous history of pigmented lesion in the right eye and subsequently diagnosed as malignant melanoma of right conjunctiva and cornea on fine-needle aspiration cytology and histopathology.
