Ultrasound biomicroscopy in lens "coloboma".
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".
