1. Changes of malignant melanoma in the fundus: Early symptoms of localized melanoma include localized bulges in the fundus and flat masses of grayish white, blue-gray, brownish yellow, and dark brown on the retina. In diffuse melanoma, there is no obvious bulge in the fundus in the early stage.

2. Intraocular pressure: Low intraocular pressure is also one of the early symptoms of melanoma. As the malignant melanoma grows, the lens and iris are pushed forward by the tumor, blocking the anterior chamber angle, causing aqueous humor circulation disorders, increased intraocular pressure, and secondary glaucoma.

3. Blood vessels: In the enlarged head of malignant melanoma, enlarged blood vessels can sometimes be vaguely seen in the tumor tissue. Spontaneous intraocular hemorrhage may sometimes occur.

4. Inflammation: Due to the stimulation of toxins in melanoma tissue, uveitis and optic neuritis may occur, which are the early symptoms of melanoma.

5. Extraocular metastasis: As melanoma grows, it can erode weak parts of the sclera, such as metastases along the blood vessels and nerve ducts on the sclera to the outside of the eye and into the orbit, causing protrusion of the eyeball, and then invade adjacent tissues.

6. Systemic metastasis: Melanoma mostly metastasizes through the blood, commonly in the liver, subcutaneous tissue, central nervous system, lungs, stomach, bone marrow, etc. This is also an early symptom of melanoma.
