Accuracy of 10 MHz ultrasonography for evaluation of posterior lens capsule in traumatic cataract

To investigate the performance of 10 MHz ultrasonography in detecting posterior lens capsule defects before traumatic cataract surgery. This retrospective analysis includes patients with traumatic cataracts who underwent cataract surgery. Preoperative 10 MHz ultrasonography was performed to evaluate whether the posterior lens capsule was defective or intact, and the results were compared to the intraoperative findings. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy, and kappa were calculated. The study included 140 eyes of 140 patients. There were 68 eyes with closed-globe injuries and 72 eyes with open-globe injuries. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy, and kappa of 10 MHz ultrasonography was 86.76
