Ukubomvu kwamehlo

Ukubomvu kwamehlo kudla ngokubakho ngenxa yemithambo yegazi edumbileyo. Oku kwenza umphezulu wamehlo ubonakale ubomvu okanye igazi.

Zininzi izinto ezibangela iliso elibomvu okanye amehlo. Ezinye zezongxamiseko kwezonyango. Ezinye zizinto ezibangela inkxalabo, kodwa hayi imeko engxamisekileyo. Uninzi alunanto yakuzixhalabisa ngayo.

Ukubomvu kwamehlo kuhlala kunenkxalabo kuneentlungu zamehlo okanye iingxaki zombono.

Amehlo anombala obomvu abonakala ebomvu ngenxa yokuba iinqanawa kumphezulu wenxalenye emhlophe yamehlo (i-sclera) ziyadumba. Izikhephe zinokudumba ngenxa:

• Ukoma kwamehlo
• Ukukhanya kakhulu lilanga
• Uthuli okanye amanye amasuntswana esweni
• Umzimba
• Usulelo
• Ukwenzakala

Usulelo lwamehlo okanye ukudumba kunokubangela ububomvu kunye nokubamba okunokwenzeka, ukukhupha, iintlungu, okanye iingxaki zombono. Oku kunokuba ngenxa:

• IBlepharitis: Ukudumba ecaleni komphetho wejwabu leso.
• I-Conjunctivitis: Ukudumba okanye usulelo kwithishu ecacileyo ebeka iinkophe kwaye igubungele ubuso bamehlo (isihlanganisi). Oku kuhlala kubizwa ngokuba "liliso elipinki."
• Izilonda ze-Corneal: Izilonda kwi-cornea zihlala zibangelwa yintsholongwane enkulu okanye intsholongwane.
• Uveitis: Ukudumba kwe-uvea, ebandakanya i-iris, umzimba we-ciliary, kunye ne-choroid. Isizathu kaninzi asaziwa. Inokuthi ihambelane nesifo sokuzimela, ukusuleleka, okanye ukubonakaliswa kwetyhefu. Uhlobo lwe-uveitis olubangela iliso elibomvu libizwa ngokuba yi-iritis, apho kuphela i-iris ivutha.

Ezinye izinto ezinokubangela ukubomvu kwamehlo zibandakanya:

• Umkhuhlane okanye uxabana.
• I-glaucoma ebukhali: Ukonyuka ngesiquphe koxinzelelo lwamehlo olubuhlungu kakhulu kwaye kubangele iingxaki ezibonakalayo. Le yimeko yongxamiseko kwezonyango. Eyona ndlela iqhelekileyo yeglaucoma ihlala ixesha elide (engapheliyo) kwaye ngokuthe ngcembe.
• Imikrwelo ye-Corneal: Ukonzakala okubangelwa sisanti, uthuli, okanye ukusetyenziswa gwenxa kweelensi zonxibelelwano.

Ngamanye amaxesha, indawo ebomvu ebomvu, ebizwa ngokuba yi-subconjunctival hemorrhage, iya kuvela kumhlophe wamehlo. Oku kuhlala kusenzeka emva kokucinezela okanye ukukhohlela, okubangela ukuba kuphuke isitya segazi kumphezulu wamehlo. Rhoqo, akukho zintlungu kwaye umbono wakho uqhelekile. Iphantse ayabi yingxaki enkulu. Kungaba yinto eqhelekileyo kubantu abathatha iiasprini okanye abacoci gazi. Ngenxa yokuba igazi liyavuza kwi-conjunctiva, ecacileyo, ngekhe usule okanye uhlambe igazi. Njengegruzule, indawo ebomvu iya kuhamba kungaphelanga iveki okanye ezimbini.

Zama ukuphumla amehlo akho ukuba ubomvu bubangelwa kukukhathala okanye uxinzelelo lwamehlo. Akukho lunye unyango olufunekayo.

Ukuba unentlungu yamehlo okanye unombono, biza ugqirha wamehlo ngoko nangoko.

Yiya esibhedlele okanye utsalele inombolo yongxamiseko yendawo yakho (enje nge-911) ukuba:

• Iliso lakho libomvu emva kokwenzakala.
• Unentloko ebuhlungu ngombono omdaka okanye ukudideka.
• Ubona iihalos ezijikeleze izibane.
• Unesicaphucaphu nokugabha.

Fowunela umboneleli wakho wezempilo ukuba:

• Amehlo akho abomvu ngaphezu kweentsuku ezi-1 ukuya kwezi-2.
• Unentlungu yamehlo okanye utshintsho lombono.
• Uthatha iyeza lokucoca igazi, njengewarfarin.
• Unokuba nento esweni lakho.
• Unovakalelo ekukhanyeni.
• Unencindi etyheli okanye eluhlaza okotshani kwelinye okanye omabini amehlo.

Umboneleli wakho uya kwenza uvavanyo lomzimba, kubandakanya uvavanyo lwamehlo, kwaye abuze imibuzo malunga nembali yakho yezonyango. Imibuzo inokubandakanya:

• Ngaba omabini amehlo akho achaphazelekile okanye linye?
• Yeyiphi indawo yamehlo echaphazelekayo?
• Ngaba unxiba iilensi zonxibelelwano?
• Ngaba ubomvu beza ngesiquphe?
• Ngaba wakha wanombala obomvu ngaphambili?
• Ngaba unentlungu emehlweni? Ngaba iba mbi ngokuhamba kwamehlo?
• Ngaba umbono wakho uncitshisiwe?
• Ngaba unayo ukukhutshwa kwamehlo, ukutshisa, okanye ukurhawuzelela?
• Ngaba unazo ezinye iimpawu ezinjengokugabha, ukugabha okanye intloko ebuhlungu?

Umboneleli wakho unokufuna ukuhlamba amehlo akho ngesisombululo se-saline kwaye ususe nayiphi na imizimba yangaphandle emehlweni. Unokunikwa amathontsi wamehlo ukuba uwasebenzise ekhaya.
