Uveal melanoma (UM), although the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults, remains a rare condition with incidence of∼ 5 to 6 people per million per year. 1 The IRIS® Registry (Intelligent Research in Sight) is the nation’s largest electronic health record (EHR)-based ophthalmology registry. It collects information in an automated fashion, in contrast to many other clinical databases that typically require manual data entry. 2 Given the Registry’s potential in evaluating rare diseases, we sought to identify and characterize patients with UM within the IRIS Registry to determine its feasibility as a tool to study UM.The methods of the IRIS Registry have been previously described. 2 The query was performed on September 6, 2019. Patients with UM diagnosed between 2013 and 2017 were identified using the International Classification of Disease 9 and 10 edition codes (Table S1, available at www. ophthalmologyretina. org). Information regarding tumors, clinical examination, treatments, and visual outcomes were obtained. The date at which a patient was given a qualifying diagnosis was defined as the index date. Data elements of interest were compared before UM diagnosis (ie, preindex) and at or up to 1 year after UM diagnosis (postindex).
