He aha ka hana a ke kauka maka?

ʻAe, e nānā kākou i ka mea a kēia kauka a wahine paha e hana ai no ko kākou mau maka. Hiki iā lākou ke hāʻawi i ka mālama maka piha. ʻO ia hoʻi:

I ka manawa hea mākou e ʻike ai i ke kauka maka?

I kēia manawa e noʻonoʻo paha ʻoe, "I ka manawa hea e ʻike ai au i kahi Ophthalmologist?" ʻO ka maʻamau, pono paha ʻoe i ke kōkua o kahi Ophthalmologist i nā kūlana aʻe:

No nā pilikia maka maʻamau a me nā maʻi liʻiliʻi

• Inā ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike maopopo i nā mea ma kahi mamao (ua kapa ʻia kēia he " Hyperopia "), e noʻonoʻo ʻoe ua paʻakikī iā ʻoe ke heluhelu i kahi helu kaʻa mai kahi mamao aku.
• Inā ʻike ʻoe i nā mea kokoke, no ka laʻana, he puke a he nūpepa paha, a ʻike ʻia nā leka he blurry (ua kapa ʻia kēia he `(Myopia)`). Pono kekahi poʻe e paʻa i ka nūpepa i kahi mamao iki aku e heluhelu ai, ʻeā? Pēlā nō ia.
• I kekahi manawa ʻike ʻia ke kiʻi like me ʻelua, a i ʻole keakea ʻia, a i ʻole ke kīkoʻo ʻia (ua kapa ʻia kēia he "Astigmatism". Hiki ke hana ʻia kēia ma muli o kahi loli iki i ke ʻano o ke aniani o ka maka).
• I ka wā kamaliʻi, loaʻa i kekahi mau keiki kahi kūlana e nāwaliwali ai kekahi maka ma mua o kekahi , me he mea lā he palaualelo lākou. Ua kapa ʻia kēia he "Amblyopia" a i ʻole "maka palaualelo." Inā ʻaʻole e mālama koke ʻia kēia, hiki i ka ʻike ma kēlā maka ke lilo i mea hōʻino mau loa.
• I kekahi manawa, me ka ʻelemakule, hiki i ka ʻāpana e like me ka jelly o ka maka (ka vitreous) ke hoʻokaʻawale (posterior vitreous detachment - PVD). Hiki i kēia ke hana i nā kiko ʻeleʻele a i ʻole nā ​​​​mea e like me ka ʻupena e lana i mua o ka maka.
• Aia kekahi mau maʻi maka e hele mai me ka ʻelemakule, no ka laʻana `(Macular Degeneration)` (ka nāwaliwali o ka ʻāpana waena o ka retina i ko kākou ʻelemakule ʻana). Ma kēia, nāwaliwali ka ʻāpana koʻikoʻi o ka retina i loko o ka maka, a ʻo nā mea i ʻike pololei ʻia i mua e hoʻomaka e lilo i mea pōuliuli.

Inā pono ke ʻoki kino a i ʻole ka lāʻau lapaʻau kūikawā

Eia kekahi, inā makemake ʻoe i ke ʻoki maka a i ʻole ka mālama kūikawā,Pono ʻoe e ʻike i kahi `(Ophthalmologist)`. Eia kekahi mau laʻana:

• Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe ka glaucoma, he maʻi weliweli kēia. ʻO kēia no ka mea ke piʻi nei ke kaomi i loko o ka maka, e hōʻino ana i ke aʻalolo optic, a e hoʻopōʻino mālie ana i ka ʻike. I ka hapa nui o nā hihia, ʻaʻohe hōʻailona i ka wā mua.
• Inā ua hemo ka retina (`(Retinal Detachment)`). He pilikia kēia! Inā hemo ka ʻāpana e like me ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni i loko o ka maka, hiki iā ia ke alakaʻi i ka makapō inā ʻaʻole e mālama koke ʻia.
• Inā he maʻi (`(Corneal Disease)`) i loko o ka cornea o ka maka . ʻO ka cornea ka ʻāpana moakaka ma ke alo o ka maka.
• Inā hōʻino ka maʻi diabetes i nā kīʻaha koko i loko o nā maka (Diabetes-related Retinopathy). Hiki i ka poʻe me ka maʻi diabetes ke hōʻino i nā kīʻaha koko liʻiliʻi i loko o ko lākou mau maka, e hoʻokahe ai ke koko a hoʻokumu ʻia nā kīʻaha koko hou. Hiki i kēia ke hoʻopilikia i ka ʻike.

ʻEhia pinepine e pono ai iaʻu e nānā i koʻu mau maka?

He nīnau kēia a ka poʻe he nui. "ʻEhia pinepine e pono ai iaʻu e nānā i koʻu mau maka?" Aia maoli kēia i nā kumu he nui, me kou makahiki, nā maʻi ʻē aʻe āu e loaʻa ai (e like me ka maʻi diabetes), a inā paha he pilikia maka ko kekahi o kou ʻohana. Eia kekahi mau ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo maʻamau:

• Nā kamaliʻi: A hiki i ko lākou hoʻomaka ʻana i ke kula, e nānā ke kauka pediatric o kāu keiki i ko lākou mau maka i kēlā me kēia lāʻau pale (kipa olakino-keiki), a laila hoʻokahi a ʻelua paha i ka makahiki.
• Nā pākeke ma lalo o 40: ʻO ka maʻamau i hoʻokahi manawa i kēlā me kēia 5 a 10 mau makahiki. Akā ma mua koke inā ʻike ʻoe i kahi loli i ka ʻike.

• Nā kānaka ma luna o 55 mau makahiki: Hoʻokahi manawa i kēlā me kēia 1 a 3 mau makahiki. ʻO kēia no ka mea i kēia makahiki, ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o ka pilikia o ka loaʻa ʻana o nā maʻi e like me ka cataracts, glaucoma, a me ka macular degeneration.

He mea nui loa: Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe ka maʻi diabetes, pono ʻoe e nānā i kou mau maka ma ka liʻiliʻi hoʻokahi manawa i ka makahiki. He mea nui loa ka ʻike ʻana i ka pōʻino o ka maka e pili ana i ka maʻi diabetes (Diabetic Retinopathy) i ka wā mua, i hiki ke hāʻawi ʻia ka lāʻau a hiki ke mālama ʻia kou ʻike.

Inā ʻoe e ʻaʻahu nei i nā aniani a i ʻole nā ​​​​aniani hoʻopili, e haʻi aku kāu kauka iā ʻoe i ka pinepine o kou hele ʻana mai. E hahai i kēlā mau kuhikuhi.

Inā ʻike ʻoe i kekahi mau loli i kou mau maka e like me kēia, e ʻike koke i ke kauka!

Mai poina i kēia. Inā ʻike ʻoe i kekahi mau loli koke i kou ʻike a i ʻole nā ​​​​hōʻailona hou, mai hoʻokaʻulua. E ʻike i kahi kauka maka a i ʻole kekahi loea maka i ka hikiwawe loa. Pono kekahi mau maʻi maka i ka mālama koke ʻia.

• Inā ʻeha mau kou mau maka ma hope o kekahi mau lā.
• Inā lilo koke kou ʻike i mea pōwehiwehi, a inā paha e emi mālie ana.
• Ke ʻike ʻana i ʻelua mau mea i ka manawa hoʻokahi (`(Diplopia)`).

• Inā ʻeha loa kou mau maka a hiki ʻole iā ʻoe ke nānā aku i ke kukui, a inā paha e like me ka haehae ʻana o kou mau maka (`(Photophobia)`).
• Inā manaʻo ʻoe e lilo ana kou ʻike i mea ʻino a ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike maopopo i nā mea.
• Inā hoʻomaka ʻoe e ʻike i nā kiko ʻeleʻele hou, nā ʻupena, a i ʻole nā ​​​​​​kukui kukui i mua o kou mau maka, he mau hōʻailona paha kēia o ka retinal detachment.

Inā ʻike ʻoe i kahi mea e like me kēia, mai manaʻo wale, "E maikaʻi ana." ʻO ka mea maikaʻi loa e hana ai, ʻo ia ke ʻike i ke kauka a loaʻa ka ʻōlelo aʻo.

He aha kāu e nīnau ai i ke kauka?

Ke hele mākou e ʻike i ke kauka, poina iā mākou i kekahi manawa ke nīnau i nā mea e noʻonoʻo nei mākou. No laila, ke hele ʻoe e ʻike i ke kauka maka, e hoʻomanaʻo i kēia mau nīnau. Hiki iā ʻoe ke kākau iā lākou inā makemake ʻoe.

Mai makaʻu e nīnau i kāu mau nīnau. ʻO ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ʻike maikaʻi i kou kūlana e kōkua i kāu lapaʻau e holomua.

He aha ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o kahi `(Ophthalmologist)` a me kahi `(Optometrist)`?

He wahi huikau kēia no nā kānaka he nui. E like me kā mākou i ʻōlelo ai ma mua, hana ka "Ophthalmologist" a me ka "Optometrist" me nā maka, akā aia kekahi mau ʻokoʻa i kā lākou hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana a me nā mea hiki iā lākou ke hana.

• Kauka Maka : ʻO kēia ka mea a mākou i kamaʻilio ai ma loko o kēia ʻatikala. Loaʻa iā lākou ke kēkelē mai ke kula lapaʻau (MD a i ʻole DO) a me ke aʻo ʻoki kino kūikawā ma ka maka. Hiki iā lākou ke ʻike a mālama i kekahi maʻi maka, kuhikuhi i nā lāʻau lapaʻau, a hana i ke ʻoki maka. ʻO lākou ka poʻe nāna e mālama mua i nā maʻi maka paʻakikī.

• (Kauka maka)Nā Kauka Maka: ʻO kēia ka poʻe i loaʻa ke kēkelē i kapa ʻia ʻo "Kauka o Optometry - OD". Hiki iā lākou ke nānā i nā maka, ʻike i nā pilikia ʻike (ʻo "Myopia, Hyperopia, Astigmatism"), a kuhikuhi i nā aniani a me nā "aniani hoʻopili". Hiki iā lākou ke ʻike a mālama i kekahi mau maʻi maka maʻamau (e like me nā maʻi maka). Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole hana kahi "Optometrist" i ke ʻoki maka. Inā manaʻo kahi "Optometrist" e pono ana kou mau maka i ke ʻoki a i ʻole ka lāʻau lapaʻau kūikawā i loaʻa wale mai kahi "Ophthalmologist", e kuhikuhi ʻo ia iā ʻoe i kahi "Ophthalmologist".

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, hiki iā ʻoe ke hele i kahi "Optometrist" no ka hoʻokolokolo maka maʻamau a i ʻole e kiʻi i nā aniani. Eia nō naʻe, inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi maʻi e like me ka cataracts a i ʻole glaucoma, pono ke ʻoki ʻana, a i ʻole he maʻi maka paʻakikī, pono ʻoe e ʻike i kahi "Ophthalmologist".

Hele kekahi poʻe i ke kauka maka no kā lākou hoʻokolohua maka maʻamau. ʻAʻohe hewa o ia mea. ʻO ka mea nui, ʻo ia ke hele i kahi e hāʻawi ana i ka mālama maikaʻi loa no kou mau maka.

ʻO ka mea hope loa, e hoʻomanaʻo kākou i kēia?

ʻO nā maka ʻelua o nā ʻōkana koʻikoʻi a makamae loa i loko o ko kākou kino. He kuleana ko kākou e pale iā lākou.

• He loea ka ophthalmologist hiki ke lawe i ke kuleana piha no ke olakino o kou mau maka a hiki ke hana i ke ʻoki kino inā pono.
• He mea nui loa ka hana ʻana i nā hoʻokolohua maka maʻamau e kūpono i kou mau makahiki a me kou olakino. Ma kēia ʻano, inā he pilikia, hiki ke ʻike mua ʻia a mālama ʻia ma mua o ka lilo ʻana i mea koʻikoʻi.
• No nā kūlana paʻakikī e like me ka cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, a inā pono ʻoe i ke ʻoki maka, pono ʻoe e ʻike i kahi ophthalmologist.
• Inā ʻike ʻoe i kekahi mau loli ʻē i kou ʻike, mai hoʻowahāwahā iā ia. Inā ʻeha kou maka, ʻike pōwehiwehi, paʻakikī ke ʻike i ka mālamalama, a i ʻole nā ​​kiko ʻeleʻele, e ʻike koke i ke kauka.
