Ukuba ukhe waphuma phandle ngemini eqaqambileyo ngaphandle kwezibuko zelanga kwaye woyika ngokungathi uvavanya okwesithandathu. Ngorhatya bhanyabhanya, usenokuba uyazibuza, "Ngaba amehlo akho angatshiswa lilanga?" Impendulo: Ewe.

Iingozi zokutshiswa lilanga kulusu lwakho zifumana indawo yokudlala ngexesha leenyanga ezishushu (ngesizathu esivakalayo), kodwa unokufumana namehlo atshiswe lilanga nawo. Yimeko eyaziwa ngokuba yi-photokeratitis kwaye, ngethamsanqa kuwe, ungayifumana intle ngalo naliphi na ixesha lonyaka.

"Into enomdla kukuba, iimeko ezininzi ze-photokeratitis zenzeka ebusika kunasehlotyeni," mhlawumbi kuba abantu bengacingi nje ngomonakalo welanga xa kubanda ngaphandle kwaye ngenxa yoko abazikhuseli ngokufanelekileyo, utshilo uZeba A. Syed, MD, ikhonne ugqirha wotyando kwiSibhedlele samehlo iWills.

Ngelixa iingcali zingaqinisekanga ngokupheleleyo ukuba i-photokeratitis ixhaphake kangakanani, "ayiqhelekanga kakhulu," utshilo uVivian Shibayama, O.D., ugqirha wamehlo oneMpilo ye-UCLA. (Izinto eziNxulumeneyo: i-5 yeziphumo ezingaqhelekanga zeLanga elininzi kakhulu)

Ukuba ingcinga yokuba namehlo atshiswe lilanga yenza ukuba ube nesitshixo esisezantsi, musa. Pha zi Unyango olukhoyo, nangona zivunywa, azisindisi ekujonganeni neempawu ezingathandekiyo ngaphambi kokuba uphiliswe- kwaye nokuba namehlo atshiswe lilanga kumnandi njengoko kuvakala.

Ngokusisiseko, eyona ndlela yokuthintela iintlungu i-photokeratitis kukuyithintela ukuba ingenzeki kwasekuqaleni. Nantsi into ekufuneka uyazi.

Yintoni i-photokeratitis, ngokuchanekileyo?

I-Photokeratitis (aka ultraviolet keratitis) yimeko yamehlo engonwabanga enokuthi ikhule emva kokuba amehlo akho engakhuselekanga kwimitha yelanga, ngokutsho kweAmerican Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO). Ukuvezwa okungakhuselekanga kunokonakalisa iiseli kwi-cornea yakho-umaleko ongaphandle wamehlo akho-kwaye ezi seli ziye zityibilike emva kweeyure ezininzi.

Inkqubo ifana kakhulu nokuba nelanga esikhumbeni sakho, kwibala lamehlo akho, kuchaza uGqr Shibayama. Emva kokuba iiseli ezikwi-cornea yakho zisukile, imithambo-luvo engaphantsi iyavezwa kwaye yonakaliswe, ekhokelela kwintlungu, ubuntununtunu ekukhanyeni, kunye nolo luvo luphazamisayo ngathi lusesweni lakho. (Ezinxulumeneyo: Izinto ezili-10 ezimangalisayo ezivezwa ngamehlo akho ngeMpilo yakho)

Uwafumana njani amehlo atshiswe lilanga?

Ukhe wahamba ngaphandle ngaphandle kwemini yakho amaxesha amaninzi kwaye wenze kakuhle. Kukho isizathu soko. “Phantsi kweemeko eziqhelekileyo, izinto zamehlo zikhusela ngandlel’ ithile kumonakalo wemitha ye-UV,” utshilo uKimberly Weisenberger, O.D., unjingalwazi oncedisayo kwi-Optometry yezonyango kwiYunivesithi yaseOhio State. Ingxaki kuxa uchanabeke kumanqanaba aphezulu emitha ye-UV, uyacacisa.

Amanqanaba aphezulu emitha ye-UV anokuvela kwimithombo eyahlukeneyo, kodwa i-AAO idwelisa ngokuthe ngqo ezi zinto zilandelayo zomngcipheko:

• Ukuboniswa kwekhephu okanye ngamanzi
• I-arc ze-Welding
• Izibane zelanga
• Iibhedi zokulukwa
• Izibane zentsimbi ezonakalisiweyo (ezinokufumaneka kwiindawo zokuzivocavoca)
• Izibane zeGermicidal UV
• Isibane se halogen esigqabhukileyo

Abantu abachitha ixesha elininzi bengaphandle, njengabahambi kunye nabaqubhayo, banokuba nokwenzeka ngakumbi ukuba baphuhlise i-photokeratitis, i-sheerly ngenxa yokuvezwa kwabo rhoqo elangeni, ngokutsho kweKliniki yaseCleveland.

Zithini iimpawu zempawu zokutshiswa lilanga?

Nantsi into: ngekhe uxelele ukuba amehlo akho atshiswa lilanga kude kube semva kwenyani. U-Vatinee Bunya, M.D., unjingalwazi ongumhlobo we-Ophthalmology kwiYunivesithi yasePennsylvania iPerelman School of Medicine, uthi: "Njengolusu lutshiswe lilanga. "Kukho ukulibaziseka kweempawu zeeyure ezimbalwa ukuya kwiiyure ezingama-24 emva kokuvezwa kukukhanya kwe-UV."

Nangona kunjalo, bakuba bengenile, ezi zezinye zezona mpawu zixhaphakileyo ze-photokeratitis, ngokweklinikhi yaseCleveland:

• Intlungu okanye ubomvu emehlweni
• Iinyembezi
• Umbono ongenangqondo
• Ukudumba
• Uvakalelo olukhanyayo
• Ukujijeka kweenkophe
• Uvakalelo olunamandla emehlweni
• Ukulahleka kombono okwethutyana
• Ukubona iihalos

Gcina ukhumbule: Iimpawu ze-photokeratitis zinokugqithisa kunye nezinye iimeko zamehlo eziqhelekileyo, ezifana ne-pink eye, iso elomileyo, kunye ne-allergies, uphawula uDkt Shibayama. Ngokwesiqhelo, ngekhe ubenakho ukukhutshwa njengoko unakho ngamehlo epinki okanye i-allergies, uyongeza. Kodwa i-photokeratitis "iya kuziva ngathi iliso lomile," ucacisa uGqirha Shibayama. (Eyeleleneyo: I-Mask-edityaniswe neliso elomileyo yinto-nantsi isizathu sokuba isenzeka, kunye nento onokuyenza ukuyiyeka)

Ingcebiso enkulu onokuthi ujongane ne-photokeratitis kwiliso elomileyo - ngaphandle kokuvezwa kutsha nje ekukhanyeni okukhulu kwe-UV - kukuba omabini amehlo adla ngokubandakanyeka, wongeza uGqr Bunya. “Ukuba iliso elinye lineempawu, usenokuba nenye ingxaki yamehlo efana neliso elomileyo okanye elipinki,” utshilo.

Zithini iziphumo zexesha elide ze-photokeratitis?

Kuyavunywa, uphando malunga nefuthe lexesha elide le-photokeratitis liyasilela, uyacacisa uGqirha Weisenberger. Oko kwathethi, kubonakala ngathi akukho khonkco phakathi kwamehlo atshiswe lilanga kunye nokuphuhliswa kwezinye iimeko zamehlo. "Ngokuqhelekileyo, i-photokeratitis isombulula ngaphandle kokubangela utshintsho olude okanye iziphumo kwindawo yangaphambili yeso," kusho uDkt Weisenberger. "Nangona kunjalo, ukubonwa ixesha elide okanye okubonakalayo kwe-UV kunokuba neziphumo ezinobungozi nezingapheliyo kwezinye izakhiwo [zamehlo]."

Ukuba uhlala utshiswa lilanga, unokuzibeka emngciphekweni weemeko ezinje ngamehlo, ukonakala emehlweni akho, kunye nokukhula kwethishu emehlweni akho (aka pterygium, enokuthi ikhokelele ekungaboni), ezinokuthi zikhokelele kwixesha elide ukonakala kombono, ucacisa uGqirha Shibayama. Ukuvezwa rhoqo, okungakhuselekanga kwe-UV kunokukhokelela kumhlaza wolusu kwiinkophe zakho - into "ngelishwa ixhaphake ngokufanelekileyo," utshilo u-Alison H. Watson, M.D., ugqirha we-oculoplastic kunye ne-orbital kwisibhedlele i-Will Eye. Ngapha koko, malunga ne-5 ukuya kwi-10 ipesenti yazo zonke ii-cancer zesikhumba zenzeka kwi-eyelid, ngokutsho kweSebe le-Ophthalmology leYunivesithi yase-Columbia.

Indlela yokuNyanga Amehlo atshiswa lilanga

Kukho iindaba ezimnandi nge-photokeratitis: Iimpawu zihlala zinyamalala kwiiyure ezingama-48, ngokutsho kweKliniki yaseCleveland. Kodwa akuyomfuneko ukuba ubandezeleke ngenxa yeentlungu de kube ngoko.

Ukucaca, iingcali zicebisa ukuba undwendwele ugqirha wamehlo ukuba amehlo akho atshiswe lilanga. Ngamanye amagama, sukuzama nje ukubeka amathontsi wamehlo kwaye ubize usuku. Kukho unyango olwahlukileyo ugqirha wamehlo anokuthi aluncome, kuxhomekeke ekubeni mabi kangakanani amehlo akho atshiswe lilanga. I-AAO idwelisa ezi ndlela zilandelayo:

• Ukuthambisa iliso amathontsi
• Amafutha e-antibiotiki afana ne-erythromycin (yentlungu kunye nokuthintela usulelo lwebhaktiriya)
• Ukuphepha ukusebenzisa iilensi zonxibelelwano de iphilise i-cornea yakho

Ukuthatha i-counter-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory relievers kunye nokusebenzisa i-compress epholileyo kunokunceda kwakhona kwiintlungu, ngokutsho kweKliniki yaseCleveland. Ababuyekezi baseAmazon bafunga ngeNewgo Cooling Gel Eye Mask (Thenga yona, $ 10, amazon.com) hayi iintlungu zamehlo kuphela, kodwa kunye ne-migraine kunye nokuqaqanjelwa yintloko.

Ukuba i-photokeratitis yakho ayisombululeki emva kolu nyango, i-eye eye yakho inokucebisa iilensi zonxibelelwano zebhendi, ezikunceda ukukhusela nokuthambisa amehlo ngelixa baphola, utshilo uGqirha Weisenberger. (Idibeneyo: Yonke into oKhe wazibuza ngayo malunga nokuQiniseka kwamehlo)

Ungawathintela njani Amehlo atshiswe lilanga

Ukuqinisekisa ukuba unokhuseleko olufanelekileyo lwamehlo xa uphumela ngaphandle kubalulekile. UGqr. "Oyena nobangela wengxaki yimitha ye-UV, ke ngoku kuthintela le radiation kunokukhusela amehlo."

Xa ukhangela iipeni zelanga ezikhuselayo, kubalulekile ukuqinisekisa ukuba zivala ubuncinane imitha ye-UV engama-99 kwaye zikhuselekile kwimitha ye-UVA ne-UVB, uphawula uGqr. Weisenberger. I-Carfia's Vintage Round Polarised Sunglass (Yithenge, $ 17, amazon.com) ayiboneleli ngeepesenti ezili-100 zokukhusela i-UV, kodwa ikwanazo neelensi ezibonisa ukukhanya, ezinokuthi ziqhubeke nokukhusela amehlo akho ngokunciphisa ukuqaqamba elangeni elinokubonakalisa impilo yakho yamehlo.

Ukuthwala umnqwazi ukuze ukhusele amehlo akho, nokuzama ngokubanzi ukukuphepha ukuba sesichengeni selanga ngokuthe ngqo kangangoko kunokwenzeka, nako kunokunceda, utsho uGqr. Bunya. (Nazi ezinye zezona minqwazi yelanga ilungileyo ukukhusela ulusu lwakhokwaye amehlo akho.)

Okukwintsusa: I-Photokeratitis isenokungabi yinto eqhelekileyo, kodwa imeko ayikonwabisi ngokwaneleyo ukuba ngokuqinisekileyo awufuni kubeka umngcipheko kuyo.
