To see the retina when something blocks the view<\/h3><div class=\"qa-a prose col-12 col-lg-8\"><p data-reveal>A normal eye examination relies on looking through the clear front of the eye to the retina. A very dense cataract, bleeding into the gel (vitreous haemorrhage) or a scarred cornea can make that impossible. EyeWiki lists dense cataract and vitreous haemorrhage as important indications for ultrasound whenever the back of the eye cannot be examined directly. A teaching guide from the University of Iowa&#8217;s EyeRounds describes ultrasound as particularly useful when pathology prevents or obscures ophthalmoscopy.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qa-row\" data-reveal><div class=\"row\"><h3 class=\"qa-q col-12 col-lg-4\">2. To detect a retinal detachment<\/h3><div class=\"qa-a prose col-12 col-lg-8\"><p data-reveal>A B-scan can show a detached retina, and it can help tell different types of detachment apart. EyeWiki states that B-scan can distinguish a rhegmatogenous (tear-related) detachment from an exudative one, and a detachment from retinoschisis. In a 2020 systematic review and meta-analysis in <em>JAMA Network Open<\/em> (9 studies, 1,189 eyes), ocular ultrasound detected retinal detachment with a pooled sensitivity of 94% and specificity of 94%, and vitreous haemorrhage with a sensitivity of 90% and specificity of 92%. That review looked at scans performed by emergency doctors rather than eye specialists; in an eye clinic the scan is performed and read by the specialist team.<\/p>\n<p data-reveal><strong>Retinal detachment is an emergency.<\/strong> The NHS lists the warning signs as floaters or flashes of light, a dark curtain or shadow moving across your vision, and blurred vision. If these appear suddenly, seek urgent medical help straight away. Do not wait for a travel plan.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qa-row\" data-reveal><div class=\"row\"><h3 class=\"qa-q col-12 col-lg-4\">3. Before cataract surgery<\/h3><div class=\"qa-a prose col-12 col-lg-8\"><p data-reveal>Most cataract patients never need a B-scan; they have a normal examination and optical measurements. It is used in two situations.<\/p>\n<ul data-reveal>\n<li><strong>When the cataract is so dense that the surgeon cannot see the retina.<\/strong> The scan checks that the back of the eye is healthy, because a retinal problem could limit how well you see after the lens is replaced. A leaflet from an NHS eye hospital describes ultrasound as useful as a simple screening test before planned procedures such as cataract surgery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>When light-based measurement fails.<\/strong> The power of your new lens depends on the length of your eye. Optical biometry (such as the IOL Master) measures this with light, but dense cataracts scatter light. In a 2021 study in the <em>Indian Journal of Ophthalmology<\/em>, partial-coherence interferometry failed in 68.6% of eyes with dense cataracts and in 100% of the densest nuclear cataracts, whereas every measurement was possible with immersion ultrasound. This is the &#8220;eye ultrasound with water&#8221; some patients search for: in immersion A-scan, a small saline-filled cup sits against the eye and the probe is held in the fluid without touching the cornea. A trade journal review explains that this avoids the corneal compression of contact (applanation) measurement and can measure through almost any opacity.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"qa-row\" data-reveal><div class=\"row\"><h3 class=\"qa-q col-12 col-lg-4\">4. To assess lumps, lesions and injuries<\/h3><div class=\"qa-a prose col-12 col-lg-8\"><p data-reveal>Ultrasound helps to find, measure and characterise growths inside the eye, including choroidal melanoma. EyeWiki reports that combined A-scan and B-scan examinations are more than 95% accurate in diagnosing choroidal melanomas thicker than 3 mm, and a 2025 review in <em>Retina Today<\/em> notes that B-scan can show tumours from 1.5 mm in thickness. Ultrasound measures the tumour so that changes can be tracked over time; it does not replace a full examination by an ocular oncology specialist. It is also used to look for a foreign body, a dislocated lens or damage after an injury.<\/p><div class=\"links-row\" data-reveal><a class=\"link-arrow\" href=\"https:\/\/laseristanbulclinic.com\/en\/retina-surgery-turkey\/\">Retina surgery in Turkey: vitrectomy and retinal detachment repair <svg width=\"18\" height=\"18\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use href=\"#i-arrow\"\/><\/svg><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<!-- FAQ (Question and answer rows) End -->\n\n\n<!-- Heading (Intro: heading left, text right) Start -->\n<section class=\"psec pad\" id=\"what-to-expect-the-eye-ultrasound-procedure\"><div class=\"container-fluid px-0\"><div class=\"row g-0\"><div class=\"col-12\"><div class=\"intro-grid row\"><div class=\"intro-side col-12\"><h2 class=\"t48\" data-reveal>What to expect: the eye ultrasound procedure<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"copy prose col-12\"><p data-reveal>Eye ultrasound is quick and does not hurt.
