Should i be concerned if my eye doctor is sending me to have an ultrasound on my eyes?

Need Info: Please re-ask with what you have had done, reason for the referral, etc. Ultrasound is sometimes used to reduce swelling in a surgical area, but not commonly on the eyes per se. Sorry cannot answer well without such information.
