Bright (B Scan) Ultrasound

B-scan ultrasonography, or B-scan, is a diagnostic technique used in optometry and ophthalmology to generate a cross-sectional, two-dimensional image of the eye and orbit.

Ultrasound utilises sound waves with a high frequency that go through the eye. Reflections (echoes) of the sound waves create an image of the eye's structure.

Why is it done? 

A "B scan ultrasonography" test assesses the eye's backside. This test is commonly performed before cataract surgery. A severe cataract restricts the retina's view. In that case, your doctor is unaware of your retinal health. Here, ultrasound aids. We learn if the retina is in position or if something is seriously wrong with it.
