Photocoagulation of angioma of the eyelid.
An infant with a large hemangioma (strawberry mark with a cavernous component) of the eyelid was successfully treated with photocoagulation. The method resulted in rapid involution of the lesion and the visual function of the involved eye could be preserved. A similar treatment in a case with strawberry mark and another with pigmented nevus in the eyelid brought about excellent cosmetic results.
