pubmed:abstractText |
Choroidal hemangioma is a benign hamartoma that causes accumulation of subretinal fluid and resultant visual loss. Although photocoagulation can result in resolution of subretinal fluid, some have found that recurrence is common and final visual acuity often is poor. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the visual and anatomic results of radiation therapy and photocoagulation in treating patients with visual loss from choroidal hemangiomas.
