Uveal melanomas are rare in the black population. We report the case of an 81-year-old black man who presented a ciliary body melanoma of the left eye. Ophthalmological examination revealed a mass arising from the ciliary body and choroid. Diagnosis of ciliary body melanoma, made from clinical examination and ocular ultrasound, may be difficult in some cases due to its similarity to other eye tumors. Uveal melanomas mainly affect Caucasians but they are not unknown in blacks.
