UBM Importance in Glaucoma Management
In this short video, Dr. Michel Puech explains the importance of using UBM in assessing the angle, in part, to determine causes of closed angles. UBM imaging is an essential diagnostic technology for the diagnosis and management of angle-closure glaucoma. Through unmatched resolution of the different structures at the angle, Sonomed Escalon UBMs provide excellent diagnostic tools for glaucoma-related concerns that cannot be evaluated by other examination methods, helping in identifying the reasons for elevated intraocular pressure and assess treatment effectiveness:
Relative Pupillary Block
Plateau Iris Syndrome
Pupil Movement
Other Secondary Causes
