In this case report, we present a male patient with blurred vision in his left eye for six months.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined 80 Indian patients with choroidal osteoma, focusing on demographic and clinical characteristics as well as treatment outcomes.
  • Most patients were female (61%), with the majority in their second decade of life; various associated complications like choroidal neovascularization (CNV) were noted in 40% of eyes.
  • Treatment methods included anti-VEGF therapy for CNV and other procedures, with mean best corrected visual acuity improving slightly over a follow-up period, indicating the need for ongoing monitoring despite the generally benign nature of the condition.

Objective: To characterize the clinical and imaging features of circumscribed choroidal hemangioma (CCH), and to evaluate individualized treatment efficiency of photodynamic therapy (PDT), transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT), or their combination, followed by retrobulbar injection of betamethasone on CCH resolvement.

Methods: Forty-nine patients with CCHs who underwent PDT, TTT or PDT+TTT treatments were retrospectively analyzed. Their treatment efficacy was compared by analyzing the change of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), subretinal fluid (SRF) and CCH lesion characteristics.
