摘要
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".
