Hemangiomas in infancy generally require a multidisciplinary approach. As a result of their natural course, usually with spontaneous involution, a “watch-and-wait” strategy often seems to be sufficient. Nevertheless, in periorbital hemangiomas not only cosmetic but also functional aspects may require an early intervention. There are many treatment options such as steroids, surgery, cryotherapy, magnesium seeds and laser. The present paper focuses on the different types of laser used in the treatment of infantile capillary eyelid and periorbital hemangiomas.

Background
Presentation of the current treatment indications for photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin in the management of different choroidal diseases.
Methods
A review is given of the standard treatment protocol, the results of published clinical trials and cohort or case-control studies with two clinical examples.
Results
Monotherapy with PDT for neovascular age-related macular degeneration is no longer a first-line therapy. The reasoning behind combining PDT with an antiangiogenic treatment with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor is to decrease the number of re-treatments. In other diseases of the choroid, such as circumscribed choroidal hemangioma or central serous chorioretinopathy, use of PDT with verteporfin as a monotherapy may prove to be an effective method to improve or stabilize vision in the majority of patients.
Conclusions
Verteporfin PDT still represents an effective and safe treatment because of its selectivity to the choroid.

Transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) is a non-invasive treatment option for malignant choroidal melanoma and choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). It can be considered as a cost-saving treatment, preventing surgical intervention. Up to now the energy level for TTT in CNV has not been clearly defined. Therefore over-treatment (inducing a retinal scar) as well as undertreatment (persistence of CNV) is possible. This may be the main cause for not using TTT as a preferred treatment for wet ARMD. Over the last 2 years the use of TTT for CNV has experienced a slight revival. In some studies a sub-threshold or low-dose TTT has been applied alone or in combination with intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (iVTA) or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors. In several studies TTT for the treatment of malignant choroidal melanoma has been shown to be safe as a unique treatment for small choroidal tumors or as an adjuvant treatment for larger choroidal tumors (‘sandwich technique’).
