Ultrasound B-scan examination of traumatized eye is a safe, cheap & easy diagnostic method for visualization of the posterior pole of the eye. Ophthalmoscopic visualization of the fundus of traumatized eye can be obscured by corneal opacity, anterior chamber hyphema, cataractous change of the lens, or hemorrhage of the vitreous. Ultrasound B-scan examination of the posterior pole is imperative in such cases to detect any intraocular damage and the presence of a foreign body. So we performed ultrasound B-scan examination of traumatized eye in seventy eight patients & analyzed those findings. All cases were confirmed by follow up examination of ophthalmoscopy & ultrasound, or surgery. The results were as follows ; 1. The most common cause of the ocular injury was traffic accidents (19 patients, 24.4%), male was more commonly injured (63 patients, 80.8%), and the most common age group was their 4th decade. 2. summary of sonographically detected intraocular lesions were as follow ; 1) corneal opacity (44 patients)-hyphema 15, traumatic cataract 24 vitreous hemorrhage 31, retinal detachment 20, intraocular foreign body 4, etc. 20 hyphema(16 patients)-hyphema 16, vitreous hemorrhage 11, retinal detachment 5, etc. 3) Traumatic cataract with no corneal or lens opacity(6 patients)-vitreous hemorrhage with or without retinal detachment 3, normal vitreous & retina 3 4) Vitreous opacity(12 patients)-vitreous hemorrhage 12, retinal detachment 4, intraocular foreign body 3, etc. In all seventy eight patients with ocular trauma, we could demonstrate characteristic findings for each intraocular lesion. So we recognized the importent role and high diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound B-scan examination for the evaluation of the posterior pole of traumatized eye.
