Summary Purpose To evaluate fundus autofluorescence aspect in retinal and choroidal tumor, paraneoplastic syndrome and intraocular lymphoma. Methods All the study patients underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination including biomicroscopic, fundus examination, color photography, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein angiography, indocyanin green angiography and SD ‐ OCT . Results A total of 14 patients with choroidal or retinal tumor or paraneoplastic syndrome were analysed. 3 cases diagnosed with choroidal melanoma, 1 case of melanocytoma, 2 cases of choroidal nevi, 2 cases of choroidal metastasis, 2 cases of choroidal hemangioma, 1 case of choroidal osteoma, 1 case of intraocular lymphoma, 2 cases of paraneoplastic syndrome (1 BDUMP and 1 AEPPVM ) were analysed. The color fundus photographs, angiography and B‐scan findings were compared with FAF imaging. In most of cases FAF imaging is perfectly corellated with, color fundus photographs, angiography, and OCT findings (orange pigment, drusens, calcifications, pseudovitelliform deposits, atrophy…). Conclusion FAF imaging allows a very interesting analysed in ocular oncology without used of dye, a good correlation was found with color fundus photographs, angiography and OCT findings.
