    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Posterior scleritis is an inflammatory condition affecting the back of the eye.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management and preventing vision loss.

    Observation:

    • This study describes the echographical criteria for diagnosing posterior scleritis.
    • A case history illustrates these diagnostic features.

    Findings:

    • Characteristic A-scan findings include broad scleral echoes with high reflectivity and poor sound attenuation.
    • B-scan findings show a clearly demarcated, thickened posterior sclera and edema in Tenon's space.

    Implications:

    • These echographical criteria can improve the diagnostic accuracy of posterior scleritis.
    • Ultrasonography serves as a valuable tool in the clinical assessment of posterior scleritis.
