• Hyperthermia

  This laser penetrates deeper, causing hyperthermia and occlusion of blood vessels with less damage to the surrounding retina. This leads to a decrease in subretinal fluid as well as a decrease in overall tumor size. [journalofoptometry.org]

• Blurred Vision

  A 70-year-old male presented with blurred vision of the left eye (OS). Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/60 right eye and 20/160 OS. Biomicroscopy revealed bilateral cataracts. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  A 52-year-old myopic male with a refraction of –8.00 D in both eyes (OU) noted blurred vision in his left eye (OS) for 4 years. [ojoonline.org]

  The most common symptom in patients with CCH is blurred vision secondary to macular edema. If complications do arise, there are several treatment options available. [journalofoptometry.org]

  Amblyopia (lazy eye) As the tumor blurs the vision, the brain gradually ignores the blurred vision from that eye and the eye drifts or crosses (strabismus). [sturge-weber.org]

• Visual Acuity Decreased

  Most patients demonstrated recovery of vision (69%), some remained stable at their pre-treatment vision level (27.5%), and 1 patient had slight visual acuity decrease. [omicsonline.org]

• Facial Hemihypertrophy

  The clinical diagnostic criteria include ipsilateral neveus flammeus, seizures, hemiparesis, mental retardation, buphthalamos, ipsilateral bone and sinus hypertrophy, facial hemihypertrophy, and somatic hemiatrophy [3]. [ijri.org]

• Behavior Problem

  Sturge-Weber syndrome, with its neural involvement, leads to seizures that can be intractable; it has been associated with developmental delay and behavioral problems. [retinalphysician.com]

• Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizure

  An 11-year-old girl presented with two episodes of generalized tonic clonic seizures of 1-year duration, and gradual loss of right eye vision of 2-years' duration. [ijri.org]

Treatment The decision to treat a CCH should be individualized. The physician should base treatment on the extent of symptoms, loss of vision, and the potential for visual recovery. [retinalphysician.com]

In general, these treatments exhibit high iatrogeny and are associated to a high rate of relapses. [kundoc.com]

Prognosis. Sturge-Weber syndrome, with its neural involvement, leads to seizures that can be intractable; it has been associated with developmental delay and behavioral problems. [retinalphysician.com]

Prognosis The prognosis for all forms of nevi tends to be good with iris nevi showing enlargement in less than 5% of cases (Territo et al., 1988). [atlasgeneticsoncology.org]

Diffuse choroidal hemangiomas can be associated with systemic Sturge-Weber syndrome and have a poorer long-term visual prognosis due to coexistent amblyopia and glaucoma. [retinatoday.com]

Melanomas with predominantly spindle cells have thin elongated cells and imply better prognosis. Epithelioid cell type melanoma has round cells and imply worse prognosis. There are two basic types of melanoma by genetics: high risk and low risk. [fighteyecancer.com]

Visual prognosis is good unless the hemangioma involves the macula. [eyewiki.aao.org]
