To know the most frequent conjunctiva tumors in our setting, a descriptive retrospective study of 202 patients with histological diagnosis of conjunctival tumors, who underwent surgery at "Ramón Pando Ferrer" Ophthalmological Hospital from January 1985 to December 1995, was made. One hundred and sixteen patients (57 %) were males and 86 (43 %) were females. 30 % were in the age group 31-50. 61.9 % of the injuries were located in the bulbar conjunctiva. It was obtained a total of 17 histological diagnoses. The conjunctiva tumors were more frequently observed in patients aged 31-50. Males were the most affected in our series. These tumors are preferably located in the bulbar conjunctiva. The most common tumors were pterygion, nevus and granulomas
