Summary

This study looks at how different treatments for retinoblastoma (a rare eye cancer) affect quality of life years later. Researchers will compare children who had the eye removed versus those who got chemotherapy directly into the eye artery. The goal is to learn which approach leads to better emotional and social well-being, so doctors can improve care for future patients.
