Ocular squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in animals is a primary tumor of epithelial cellsthat may occur in different ocular and periocular tissues, especially the epithelial surfacesof the conjunctiva, corneoscleral junction, nictitating membrane, cornea and eyelid skin.This report describes histological and immunohistochemical features of four different clin-ical cases classified as OSCC in Valle del Belice sheep. Importance of solar radiation in theetiology of OSCC is discussed, together with other potential risk factors.
