Abstract:
The safety profile of certain techniques, such as sclerotherapy, is questionable in a region as precarious as the periorbital region, where complications related to vision would be catastrophic. Other safe techniques such as phlebectomy can be performed with successful outcomes but are operator dependent, require a reasonable degree of technical ability, and can result in scarring and other complications. The aim of this article is to explore newer, laser-based treatment of these periorbital veins, discuss the physiology and the therapeutic efficacy, and better delineate the safety profile and evolution of the technique that has led to the present treatment paradigm.
