Unilateral involvement was seen in 56%. The median age of presentation was 21 years with a median follow-up of 21.5 months. Anterior uveitis was noted in 13.88%, intermediate uveitis in 52.77%, and panuveitis in 33.33% eyes. UBM findings commonly noted were pars plana membranes, supraciliary effusion, blunted ciliary process, and ciliary body traction. Other findings included ciliochoroidal detachment and ciliary body edema. Moreover, 22.2% eyes were managed with medical therapy alone, whereas 77.8% eyes received both medical and surgical intervention based on UBM findings. Furthermore, 66.7% eyes showed improvement in intraocular pressure, 13.9% eyes maintained the same IOP, whereas 19.4% eyes had worsening of IOP at final follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We found UBM as a useful imaging tool in evaluating and judiciously deciding the mode of management of uveitic hypotony.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijo.ijo_1313_21","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,16]],"date-time":"2022-02-16T07:51:02Z","timestamp":1644997862000},"page":"443-447","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Ultrasound biomicroscopy as a tool in the evaluation and management of ocular hypotony in uveitis"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Sudha K","family":"Ganesh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Uveitis and Intraocular Inflammation, Medical Research Foundation, Sankara Nethralaya, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nivedita","family":"Nair","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Uveitis and Intraocular Inflammation, Medical Research Foundation, Sankara Nethralaya, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Divya","family":"Thatikonda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Uveitis and Intraocular Inflammation, Medical Research Foundation, Sankara Nethralaya, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"R2-20251006","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"619","DOI":"10.1016\/j.survophthal.2019.04.006","article-title":"Ocular hypotony: A comprehensive review","volume":"64","author":"Wang","year":"2019","journal-title":"Surv Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R3-20251006","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"97","DOI":"10.1016\/S0039-6257(96)80001-4","article-title":"Postsurgical hypotony: Relationship to fistulization, inflammation, chorioretinal lesions, and the vitreous","volume":"41","author":"Schubert","year":"1996","journal-title":"Surv Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R4-20251006","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"281","DOI":"10.1016\/0039-6257(83)90228-X","article-title":"Ciliochoroidal detachment","volume":"27","author":"Brubaker","year":"1983","journal-title":"Surv Ophthalmol"},{"key":"R5-20251006","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"175","DOI":"10.1097\/00004397-200004000-00014","article-title":"Appraisal and management of ocular hypotony and glaucoma associated with uveitis","volume":"40","author":"Tran","year":"2000","journal-title":"Int Ophthalmol Clin"},{"key":"R6-20251006","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"553","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02169204","article-title":"Endotoxin-induced uveitis in the rat.
