Anterior segment imaging of the diseased eye. Panel (a) shows the anterior segment examined by ultrasound bio-microscopy. The whole cornea was invaded by a hypo echoic solid tumor, and almost the full-thickness of the cornea was opacity. Descemet’s membrane can barely be discerned. The central cornea thickness was more than 3000 μm. No obvious abnormalities were found for chamber depth and anterior chamber angle. Panel (b) shows ultrasound results of the eye. The ultrasonography shows no remarkable lesions of intraocular structures. However, the color ultrasound shows abundant blood flow signals in the anterior cornea with a velocity of 6 cm/s. Panel (c) shows, through magnetic resonance imaging, a space-occupying lesion present in the cornea and conjunctiva. The density was similar to muscle or soft tissue. The eye was integrated and no similar lesions were found in other areas of the head
