Requests for its use are frequent in the authors\u2019 hospital in spite of the absence of a dedicated eye scanner.

The minimum age was 1\u00bd years and maximum was 70 years. The 11- to 20-year age group was mostly affected by trauma (31%). Retinal detachment (22.5%) was the most common posterior segment lesion diagnosed, followed by vitreous hemorrhage (18.3%) and hyphema (11.3%). Visual acuity improved to between 6\/9 and 6\/18 in 23 (41.4%) of the 56 injured eyes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The usefulness of orbito-ocular ultrasonography in ophthalmic trauma management has been demonstrated in this study, especially using nondedicated eye scanners when a dedicated one is unavailable.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/112067210601600315","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,19]],"date-time":"2018-01-19T00:43:53Z","timestamp":1516322633000},"page":"453-457","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Sonographic Evaluation of Ocular Trauma in Ilorin, Nigeria"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"D.A.","family":"Nzeh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, Kwara\u2013State - Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.F.A.","family":"Owoeye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, Kwara\u2013State - Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D.S.","family":"Ademola-Popoola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, Kwara\u2013State - Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"I.","family":"Uyanne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, Kwara\u2013State - Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0161-6420(91)32298-X"},{"key":"bibr2-112067210601600315","first-page":"202","volume":"14","author":"Baiyeroju-Agbeja A.M.","year":"1995","journal-title":"West Afr J Med"},{"key":"bibr3-112067210601600315","first-page":"75","volume":"11","author":"Chugh J.P.","year":"2001","journal-title":"Ind J Radiol Imag"},{"key":"bibr4-112067210601600315","first-page":"87","volume":"25","author":"Nzeh D.A.","year":"1998","journal-title":"Nig J Paed"},{"key":"bibr5-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"A23","DOI":"10.1016\/S0301-5629(00)00156-3","volume":"26","author":"Nzeh D.A.","year":"2000","journal-title":"Ultrasound Med Biol"},{"key":"bibr6-112067210601600315","first-page":"12","volume":"3","author":"Akinsola F.B.","year":"1996","journal-title":"Nig J Surg"},{"key":"bibr7-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.1993.01090110130038"},{"key":"bibr8-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/08820539809056055"},{"key":"bibr9-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9394(74)90672-2"},{"key":"bibr10-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9394(73)91024-6"},{"key":"bibr11-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"123","DOI":"10.4103\/1117-1936.170872","volume":"8","author":"Ukponmwan C.U.","year":"2001","journal-title":"Nig Postgrad Med J"},{"key":"bibr12-112067210601600315","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiology.195.2.7724761"},{"key":"bibr13-112067210601600315","first-page":"16","volume":"3","author":"Nzeh D.A.","year":"2002","journal-title":"West Afr J Ultrasound"}],"container-title":["European Journal of Ophthalmology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/112067210601600315","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/112067210601600315","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T19:36:41Z","timestamp":1777405001000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/112067210601600315"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,5]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2006,5]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/112067210601600315"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/112067210601600315","relation":{},"ISSN":["1120-6721","1724-6016"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1120-6721","type":"print"},{"value":"1724-6016","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,5]]}}}
