Introduction: Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) is currently the commonest ocular malignancy affecting people of child bearing age and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates in Zimbabwe. Early surgical intervention has been shown to mitigate the effects of OSSN amongst its victims, however this is hampered by limited histopathological services which should guide the extent of surgical excisions of these tumours.Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of Slit-lamp Assisted Visual Inspection (SAVI) in diagnosing ocular surface squamous neoplasia with the hope of recommending a fall back tool that ophthalmologists / medical practitioners / ophthalmic nurses or optometrists can use in resource limited situations without readily accessible histopathological services when surgical intervention is contemplated.Method: This was part of a study which
