Abstract
PURPOSE: To study the morphology of the Lens "Coloboma" using the technique of ultrasound biomicroscopy. METHODS: We used the Paradigm 40 Ultrasound biomicroscope to study the morphology of the lens "Coloboma". RESULTS: Ultrasound biomicroscopy of the lens "Coloboma" revealed a greatly increased sphericity of the lens and the deficiency of zonules in the "colobomatous" area. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasound biomicroscopy has helped in elucidating the pathology of the lens "Coloboma".
