We had analyzed statistically the clinical and histopathologic review of 103 cases of the eye diseases for 5 years at department of ophthalmology, Soonchunhyang University Hospital. The results were as follows; 1. The cases of biopsy among 57569 out-patients were 103 cases(0.01%). 2. The sexual distribution revealed 59 males(57.3%) and 44 females(42.7%). 3. The evaluation of the site of the involved eyes showed that 53 cases(51.5%) were right eye, the left eye were 48 cases(46.0%) and binocular were 2 cases(2.5%). 4. The primary sites of disorders were lid(41.7%), eyeball(32.0%), conjunctiva(21.4%), orbit(2.1%), cornea and lacrimal system in order of frequency. 5. According to age, the largest group was in the age first and second decades, and the smallest group in 5th decade. 6. As a single disease, nevus, eyeball rupture and cyst were relatively high in incidence. 7. The proportional rate of the correct diagnosis was 58 cases(56%) among 103 cases. 8. The most common cause of enucleation was eyeball rupture(trauma), 15 cases.
