About statistics:
This page presents a variety of statistics about Eye cancer.
The term 'prevalence' of Eye cancer usually refers to the estimated population
of people who are managing Eye cancer at any given time.
The term 'incidence' of Eye cancer refers to the annual diagnosis rate,
or the number of new cases of Eye cancer diagnosed each year.
Hence, these two statistics types can differ:
a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence,
but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.
For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics.
