Abstract: German authors stressed that carcinoma in situ is part of a pathological entity that is rare. From Argentina, cases of this growth were presented recently. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to present 5 cases from the Igbo ethnic group in Nigeria. It is shown, by way of comparison that Igbo patients do not present early for the treatment of their malignant eye condition. It is hypothesized that the ratio of (i) in situ cases to (ii) full blown cases is indicative of the degree of awareness of malignant eye disease among a community.
