A hemangioma is a benign (non-cancerous) growth made up of blood vessels. In eye care, the term is used for vascular lesions that can involve the eyelid, orbit (eye socket), or tissues inside the eye. Some hemangiomas are present at birth or early childhood, while others are found in adults. Clinicians use the word to describe both a diagnosis and a pattern seen on examination and imaging.
