Article Synopsis
- * The average age of patients at diagnosis was around 37 years, with most tumors being secondary rather than primary, and they were primarily located in the inferior and inferotemporal quadrants of the retina.
- * Treatment options such as cryotherapy and laser photocoagulation led to tumor regression in 18 out of the 19 eyes after a follow-up period of about 25 months, indicating these methods are generally effective but may require multiple sessions.
