Ocular and orbital ultrasound is an important examination that is performed for many eye diseases to detect any condition that the doctor cannot see during a regular examination. This imaging technique uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the eye and orbit tissues safely and painlessly.
The lens is measured at the Eye See Center using the latest device, Sonomed Escalon, which is distinguished by its high accuracy and several imaging systems.
- A-scan Ultrasound: Used to measure the length of the eye.
- B-scan Ultrasound: Used to create two-dimensional images of the eye and orbital tissues.
- Doppler Ultrasound: Used to measure blood flow in the eye vessels.
Uses of Ocular and Orbital Ultrasound
- Retinal Detachment: Assess the severity of detachment and its location.
- Tumors: Determine their size, location, and nature.
- Uveitis: Assess the severity of inflammation and the presence of complications.
- Hemorrhages: Identify their source and quantity.
- Orbital Infections: Assess the severity of inflammation and the presence of complications.
- Bruises: Evaluate the severity of the bruise and the presence of complications.
- Congenital Anomalies: Assess the severity of the anomaly and determine the appropriate treatment.
