Patient discussions
Patients and their parents or caregivers should be advised that treatment for retinoblastoma requires a specialized team approach incorporating the patient, family, ocular oncologist, pediatrician, and ophthalmologist. Once treatment commences for retinoblastoma, periodic examination under anesthesia is necessary for surveillance and detection of disease activity. Online patient information from recommended sources may be helpful for patient education.
