Abstract
Ocular trauma is one of the leading causes of blindness in our environment. Serious ocular injury on the other
hand gives rise to irreversible structural damage or functional loss.The application of more sophisticated diagnostic
methods, new surgical techniques and new rehabilitation procedures, it is possible to achieve vision retention in many
traumatized eyes.Ultrasonography permits accurate localization of foreign body as well. In case of dislocated lens, Bscan USG could graphically demonstrate the posterior of lens & associated abnormalities. Dislocation of lens into opaque
media is a perfect indication for ultrasound. Standardized B method or B scan (brightness modulation) is the most
frequently used method in ophthalmology, which gives which gives a two dimensional presentation of the ultrasound
finding of eye and orbit. The B-scan ultrasonography makes a pictorial presentation of the cross-section of eye. It is a
simple and quick method of imaging.
