Lymphoma is the most common neoplasia in the cat. As in the dog, lymphoma is a systemic disease in the cat, so the treatment of choice is chemotherapy. Due to the systemic pattern of the disease, it is necessary to evaluate its extent and create a stage allocation according to WHO standards before treatment. The uveal tract of the eye is one of the most perfused tissues of the body and can be involved in a variety of systemic diseases.
