Ultrasonic Biomicroscopy of the anterior segment reveals many hidden pathological abnormalities or postoperative problems that may change our surgical decisions and plans. Cases like congenital corneal opacities, post-cataract surgery and IOL implantation complicated by pseudophakic bullous keratopathy, failed filtration after penetrating glaucoma surgeries are examples of conditions that need UBM to decide the best procedure for correction. UBM became essential for preoperative evaluation of cases of Peter’s anomaly, sclerocornea, failed trabeculotomy or trabeculectomy or acute hydrops. Surgical decisions for traumatic cases or hidden IOFBs differ after UBM examination.
