ABSTRACT
This retrospective study was undertaken to evaluate the utility of Ultrasound Biomicroscopy (UBM) in the assessment of the anterior chamber in patients affected by silicone oil-related glaucoma after vitreoretinal surgery. UBM showed high reflectivity of angular structure, anterior chamber alterations and a fairly trophic ciliary body.

ABSTRACT
Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) was employed in the assessment of the anterior chamber in patients affected by penetrating and blunt traumas. UBM detected correctly the extent and the localization of penetrating injuries and the presence of foreign bodies, IOL dislocation, and angular structures or ciliary body damages.
