Cherry Angioma

CavLi20180328Angioma

These can also be called senile angiomas,  or Campbell de Morgan spots, or red moles.  These spots are benign and do not lead to cancer or progress to a disease condition.  They are found usually in persons over 30...therefore the term senile angiomas.  I would guess if you're over 30, you're old!  Well maybe not but if you have one of these spots you can try some homeopathic treatments or have them treated by a dermatologist through freezing, laser therapy, burning or shaving performed in the office.

In the above picture, you will notice the Campbell de Morgan Spot, but also you'll see some of the yellow  colored dye that is used to help in testing for glaucoma and for abrasions of the cornea.  Note the grey area just below the eyelid and between the iris (blue part of the eye) and the inside area (caruncle) of the eye.  The grey spot is a scleral or hyaline plaque which is the area nearest to the insertion of the medial rectus muscle of the eye.  Click here for a weblink about scleral or hyaline plaques.
