“…This condition is not only difficult to manage but often follows a relapsing course. 17 The glaucoma in our case is secondary to massive exudation due to diffuse choroidal hemangioma which caused the forward propulsion of the lens-iris diaphragm. There are different proposed treatment options for symptomatic serous retinal detachment associated with choroidal hemangiomas including photodynamic therapy, plaque brachytherapy, external beam and proton beam radiation and stereotactic radiosurgery.…”

“…FA imaging captures light emission from lipofuscin within the RPE [ 44 ]. The use of FA imaging has gained prominence as a non-invasive tool to visualize retinal disorders, particularly those marked by elevated autofluorescence due to heightened fluorophores within the RPE.…”

“…Furthermore, extrinsic DCH findings, including RPE hyperplasia, atrophy, and fibrous metaplasia, are often associated with hypo-FA patterns. The presence of hyper-FA due to overlying orange pigment (lipofuscin) has also been documented [ 44 , 45 ]. FA imaging provides a non-invasive window to understand the intricate interactions of autofluorescent molecules within the RPE that are of value in evaluating secondary characteristics related to DCH, although it does not give clear indications of the extent or thickness of the hemangioma.…”
