10 Hemangioma Symptoms
Symptom #5: Visual Loss
Visual impairment occurs when there is decreased ability to see which is not fixable through the use of glasses. Visual impairment or loss is important as it causes difficulty with everyday activities. The commonest causes of visual impairment are cataracts, glaucoma, and uncorrected refractive errors. Other conditions that can cause visual issues include diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and childhood blindness.
Visual loss can occur when a hemangioma occurs on the eyelids or periorbital tissues. There may be a gradual inability to open the affected eye as there is progressive involvement of the eyelid.
