B-scan or eye Ultrasound

B scan is a diagnostic criterion used in ophthalmology to provide a two-‎dimensional cross-sectional view of the eye and bowel. Ultrasound waves ‎are used in this method. When there is a barrier to retinal evaluation, such ‎as when there is severe cataract or vitreous hemorrhage, precise information ‎about the retina can be obtained through ultrasonography. It can also be ‎used to check the internal tumors of the eye.‎

The purpose of this photo

B Scan is used to diagnose the bleeding of the vitreous, or the detachment ‎and rupture of the retina, or the presence of an external object in the eye. B-‎Scan accurately specifies the anatomy and internal shape of the eye.‎
