We report a case of optic disc melonocytoma associated to subretinal neovascular membrane. The patient presented with low visual acuity, serous retinal detachment with haemorrhage and exudates and was referred with the diagnosis of melanoma and an orientation to enucleate the eye. We discuss the major aspects of both tumors and the details of differential diagnostic.
