Q

What is the MOLES scoring and grading and management?

A

To check if a naevus is a risky melanoma
M- mushroom shape (absent=0, unsure/early growth through RPE= 1, present=2)
O- orange pigment (absent=0, unsure/trace=1, confluent clumps=2)
L- large size (<3DD=0, 3-4DD=1, >4DD=2)
E- enlargement (none=0, unsure=1, definite=2)
S- subretinal fluid (absent=0, trace=1, definite= 2, assume SRF if unexplained visual loss)

Final score:
0= common naevus monitored with usual ST
1 = low risk naevus, refer non-urgently to HES
2= high risk naevus, refer non-urgently to HES
3= probable melanoma, refer urgently to HES

Q

When would you consider making a partial change to cylinder?

A

Axis change are less tolerated than cyl change so may set axis midway between current and optimal
cyl change is >0.75
axis change >30 for cyls up to 1DC, >15 for cyls 1-2DC, >7.5 for cyls over 2DC
