Real-time sonography in ocular trauma

JS Kwong, PL Munk, DT Lin, AD Vellet, M Levin and AR Buckley
Department of Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, London, Ontario, Canada.

Real-time sonography was evaluated retrospectively in 71 consecutive patients with ocular trauma. A total of 51 vitreous hemorrhages, 20 hemorrhages in the anterior chamber, 22 retinal detachments, seven choroidal detachments, five foreign bodies, and 12 dislocated lenses were identified sonographically. In 10 instances (three choroidal detachments, six retinal detachments, and one lens dislocation), these sonographic findings were not apparent on clinical examination. One hemorrhage of the anterior chamber was missed on sonography. Both sonography and clinical examination failed to visualize one retinal detachment. The results of this study show that real-time sonography is valuable in the assessment of ocular trauma and supplements clinical examination with valuable information.
