title: Ultrasound biomicroscopy in lens "coloboma".
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  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".
