Ua ʻike anei ʻoe e pili ana i kēia pale liʻiliʻi i loko o kou maka? E kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i ka cornea!

Ke nānā ʻoe i kou maka i loko o ke aniani, aia kahi ʻāpana ʻālohilohi a piʻo e like me ke aniani ma ke alo, ʻeā? ʻO ia ka mea a mākou e kapa nei he cornea. E like me ka makani o ke kaʻa, ua like kēia me kahi pale pale e pale ai i nā mea e like me ka lepo a me nā germs mai ke komo ʻana i loko o ko mākou mau maka. Eia kekahi, he mea nui loa ke ʻano o kēia cornea no mākou e ʻike maopopo ai.

Aia ka cornea ma ke alo o kahi keʻena piha wai i loko o ka maka (ʻo ia hoʻi ka 'anterior chamber'). Ma ka ʻaoʻao o ia mea ʻo ka iris a me ka pupil. ʻO ka ʻāpana keʻokeʻo o ka maka e hoʻopuni ana i ka cornea ua kapa ʻia ʻo sclera. ʻOiai ʻo ka cornea ka mea pale mua o ko kākou maka, hiki ke hōʻino maʻalahi ʻia e nā ulia a me nā ʻeha. Akā, ʻo ka mea kupaianaha, hiki i ka cornea ke ho'ōla koke iā ia iho, ʻoiai mai nā ʻeha liʻiliʻi.

He aha nā papa o ka cornea?

E noʻonoʻo he ʻeono (6) papa o kēia cornea liʻiliʻi i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma luna o kekahi. E like me ke aniani laminated, hana pū kēia mau papa e hoʻoikaika i ka cornea.

• ʻEpithelium: ʻO kēia ka papa waho loa o ka cornea. Hana ia e like me ka paia, e pale ana i nā germs a me ka lepo mai ke komo ʻana i ka maka. He ʻoluʻolu loa kēia papa i ka ʻeha. Ua ʻōlelo ʻia he 300-600 mau manawa ka nui o nā mea loaʻa ʻeha ma aneʻi ma mua o ko mākou ʻili. ʻO ia ke kumu hiki i kahi ʻāpana lepo liʻiliʻi ke hoʻoulu i ka ʻeha hiki ʻole ke hoʻomanawanui i ko mākou mau maka. Mālama kēlā ʻano ʻike i ko mākou mau maka.

• ʻO ka papa Bowman: He papa ikaika kēia i hana ʻia me ka collagen. Kōkua ia i ka cornea e mālama i kona ʻano.

• Stroma: ʻO kēia ka papa mānoanoa loa o ka cornea. ʻAʻole ia e hoʻoikaika wale i ka cornea, akā kōkua pū kekahi i ka hoʻohuli ʻana i ka mālamalama e komo ana i ka maka a hoʻopili pololei iā ia ma ka retina.

• Papa Pre-Descemet (PDL): Ua kapa ʻia kēia ʻo "papa Dua." Ua hōʻike ʻia e ka noiʻi he pale ikaika kēia ʻaʻole hiki i ka ea ke hele ma waena. He papa hou kēia, i ʻike ʻia i ka makahiki 2013 wale nō.

• ʻO ka papa o Descemet: He papa lahilahi kēia, palupalu, akā ikaika loa. He mea nui loa ia i ka pale ʻana i loko o ka maka mai ka hōʻino a me ka maʻi.

• Endothelium: ʻO kēia papa ke kuleana nui no ka mālama ʻana i ke kaulike o ka wai i loko o ka cornea. Hoʻomalu ia i ka nui o ka wai e pono ai no ka hana pono ʻana o ka stroma.

ʻO nā maʻi a me nā pilikia e hoʻopilikia pinepine ai i ka cornea

ʻOiai ʻo ia ka mea pale o ko mākou mau maka, hiki i ka cornea ke loaʻa i nā maʻi like ʻole, nā ʻeha, a me nā maʻi puʻupuʻu.

• Maka maloʻo:ʻO ka epithelium, ʻo ia ka papa waho loa o ka cornea, pono i nā waimaka e hana pono ai. Hoʻomālū nā waimaka i ka maka a kōkua iā ia e omo i ka oxygen mai ka lewa. He ʻeha nā maka maloʻo a hiki ke hoʻopilikia i ka ʻike.

• Nā maʻi: Inā he pōʻino i ka ʻili o ka cornea, hiki i nā germs - me nā virus, bacteria, fungi, a me nā parasites - ke komo maʻalahi a hoʻoulu i nā maʻi.

• Keratitis: ʻO nā maʻi, nā ulia, a me nā maʻi ʻē aʻe e hiki ke hoʻoulu i ka cornea e pehu, ʻulaʻula, a ʻeha. Ua kapa ʻia kēia he keratitis.

• Nā ʻeha: E like me ka pale makani o ke kaʻa, hiki ke hōʻino ʻia ka cornea e nā mea o waho. Hiki i kēia ke hana i nā ʻōpala, nā ʻokiʻoki, a me nā ʻōpū.

• Ka pōʻino o ke kaiapuni: ʻO ke anu nui, ka wela, nā kemika (wai a kinoea paha), a me ka radiation UV hiki ke hōʻino i ka cornea.

• Nā Maʻi Kūkulu (Dystrophies): Hoʻololi kekahi mau maʻi i ke ʻano a me ke kūkulu ʻana o ka cornea. Ua kapa pinepine ʻia kēia mau mea he 'corneal dystrophies'. ʻO Keratoconus lāua ʻo Fuchs' dystrophy ʻelua mau maʻi like.
