Abstract
Pigmented lesions of the conjunctiva are not rare. They may be acquired, congenital, benign or malignant. In the present paper, the author provides a brief review, in a non-exhaustive manner, of the common melanocytic pigmentations, with more emphasis on the malignant and pre-malignant variants.
