In the Dr. Nebro Ophthalmology Clinic, we remain committed to diagnostic technology and the continuous improvement of our ophthalmological services. We have therefore introduced the following at our practice in Fuengirola: AB FLEX DGH ocular ultrasound scanner, an advanced ophthalmic ultrasound machine that enables us to examine the internal structures of the eye with greater precision.
This new addition strengthens our diagnostic capabilities for patients with advanced cataracts, vitreous haemorrhages, retinal disorders, vitreous abnormalities, eye trauma and intraocular injuries.
A significant improvement in eye care in Fuengirola
The ocular ultrasound It is a test that uses ultrasound to produce images of the inside of the eye. Its main advantage is that it can provide information even when it is not possible to see the back of the eye clearly using a standard examination.
This occurs, for example, when the patient has a very advanced cataract, a vitreous haemorrhage or any opacity that prevents a clear view of the retina.
Thanks to the new AB FLEX DGH, we can carry out a more comprehensive assessment in cases where other diagnostic tests may have limitations.
What are the benefits of the AB FLEX DGH ocular ultrasound scanner?
The AB FLEX DGH ocular ultrasound scanner enables ultrasound examinations to be carried out to visualise the internal structures of the eye and obtain intraocular measurements.
Its main advantages include:
- It aids in the study of the posterior segment of the eye.
- It enables the interior of the eye to be assessed when there is a loss of transparency.
- It is useful in waterfalls dense or very advanced.
- It can assist in the assessment of vitreous haemorrhages.
- Provides information on suspected retinal detachment.
- It complements other ophthalmological diagnostic tests.
- It enables better planning of certain treatments or operations.
Particularly useful in cases of advanced cataracts
In some patients, the cataract is so dense that it prevents a clear view of the retina. In such cases, an ocular ultrasound scan can be a very useful test before considering surgery, as it provides information about the inside of the eye when a conventional examination is not sufficient.
This helps the ophthalmologist to assess the case more effectively and to explain the situation to the patient in greater detail.
Diagnosis of the retina and vitreous
The ocular ultrasound It is also an invaluable tool in the study of retinal and vitreous disorders. It may be useful in cases of intraocular haemorrhage, vitreous opacities or suspected abnormalities in the posterior segment of the eye.
In such cases, having this technology available in the clinic makes it possible to carry out a more comprehensive assessment without relying solely on direct visual examination of the fundus.
Technology at the service of the patient
The introduction of the AB FLEX DGH ocular ultrasound scanner forms part of Dr Nebro’s Eye Clinic’s commitment to providing accurate, personalised eye care supported by advanced diagnostic technology.
Our aim is to provide each patient with a personalised assessment, particularly in cases where the diagnosis requires further tests to obtain a more complete picture of the condition of the eye.
