| Summary: |
Ocular hypotony is a
commonly seen condition, especially after surgical
procedures or ocular trauma. Surgical wound leakage,
full thickness laceration of the globe, cyclodialysis,
iridocyclitis, cyclitic fibrous membranes and retinal
ablation are some of the underlying causes. Ultrasound
biomicroscopy allows a detailed assessment of the
anterior relations of the anterior segment of the eye
and is therefore useful in diagnosing patients with this
condition. This review paper shows the application of
this diagnostic technique in patients with ocular
hypotony. |
