CASE REPORTS: Ultrasound biomicroscopy demonstrating pupillary block in near-total hyphema: a case report and implications for surgical planning

Traumatic hyphema can induce increased intraocular pressure through various mechanisms. In this report, we provide imaging evidence of pupillary block secondary to traumatic hyphema. Ultrasound biomicroscopy may be a valuable imaging modality for assessing anterior chamber anatomy when visualization is obscured by hyphema, helping to guide the surgical approach for evacuation.

Abstract

Traumatic hyphema can induce increased intraocular pressure through various mechanisms. In this report, we provide imaging evidence of pupillary block secondary to traumatic hyphema. Ultrasound biomicroscopy may be a valuable imaging modality for assessing anterior chamber anatomy when visualization is obscured by hyphema, helping to guide the surgical approach for evacuation.
