Cabanga ukuthi uthathe isithombe somntwana wakho omncane. Ngezinye izikhathi, uma uthatha isithombe nge-flash, amehlo abukeka ebomvu. Kodwa uma ubona omunye wabafundi abamnyama esithombeni ekhanya emhlophe, empunga, noma ephuzi, uzokhathazeka kancane, akunjalo? Yilokho esikubiza ngokuthi i-leukocoria ngokwezokwelapha. Nakuba lokhu kuvame ukubonakala ezinganeni, ngezinye izikhathi kungenzeka nakubantu abadala.
Iyini ngempela iLeukocoria?
Kalula nje, i-leukocoria isho "umfundi omhlophe." Abanye abantu bayibiza nangokuthi "umfundi weso lekati."
Manje, okuvamile ukwenzeka ukuthi lapho ukukhanya kushaya iso, kushaya i-retina ngemuva kweso bese ukukhanya okuphumayo kubonakale kubomvu. Yingakho amehlo ethu ebukeka ebomvu uma sithatha isithombe nge-flash. Lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi 'i-reflex ebomvu' kwezokwelapha.
Kodwa-ke, uma kukhona ukuvinjelwa endleleni yokukhanya eya kwi-retina, yilapho kuphela ukukhanya kushaya ukuvinjelwa bese kubuyela emuva lapho kubonakala khona kumhlophe, kumpunga, noma kuphuzi. Lesi isibonakaliso esibalulekile sokuthi kungase kube nokuthile okungajwayelekile ngaphakathi kweso.
Ingabe lokhu kuyiqiniso? Ingabe kufanele sesabe?
Kodwa into ebaluleke kakhulu okufanele uyikhumbule lapha ukuthi asikho isizathu sokwesaba noma sokwesaba ngoba nje ubona into efana naleyo esithombeni esisodwa.
Ngezinye izikhathi, ukukhanya kungabonakala ebusweni beso bese kuvela kanjalo. Ngokuvamile kuba yinto encane ekhazimulayo ohlangothini olulodwa lomfundi. Kodwa-ke, ku-leukocoria, umfundi ubonakala cishe emhlophe ngokuphelele.
Uma unokungabaza, zama lokhu:
- Thatha izithombe ezimbalwa ezengeziwe zengane.
- Yibheke ohlangothini ngalunye (phezulu, phansi, kwesobunxele, kwesokudla).
- Zama nge-flash noma ngaphandle kwayo.
Uma umunwe wakho omnyama ubonakala umhlophe ezithombeni eziningi, ungawushayi indiva. Kungcono ukubona udokotela wezingane noma udokotela wamehlo ngokushesha ukuze uthole iseluleko.
Yini ebangela lokhu?
Kungaba nezimbangela eziningana ze-leukocoria. Ezinye azizimbi kakhulu futhi zingelashwa. Kodwa ezinye ziyizimo okufanele sizikhathalele kakhulu.
| Isizathu | Incazelo elula |
|---|---|
| Izizathu ezivame kakhulu | |
| Ama-cataract | Lena yimbangela evame kakhulu (cishe ama-74%). Lesi simo singabangelwa ukufiphala kwelensi yeso, kungaba ukuzalwa noma ingane. |
| I-Retinoblastoma | Yingakho kufanele sikhathazeke kakhulu. Lona umdlavuza owenzeka ku-retina. Ukutholwa kusenesikhathi kubaluleke kakhulu. |
| Ezinye izimbangela (ezingavamile) | |
| Ukuhlukaniswa kwe-retinal | Ukuhlukaniswa kwe-retina nezicubu ezingaphansi ngaphakathi kweso. |
| I-Retinopathy yokukhulelwa ngaphambi kwesikhathi | Ukukhula okungavamile kwemithambo yegazi emehlweni ezinsana ezizalwa ngaphambi kwesikhathi. |
| Isifo samajazi | Isimo esibangelwa ukuvuza koketshezi oluvela emithanjeni yegazi ku-retina. |
| Ezinye izimbangela ezingavamile kakhulu | Ezinye izimbangela zifaka phakathi i-persistent fetal vasculature (PFV), i-endophthalmitis (ukutheleleka ngaphakathi kweso), i-coloboma (umgodi wokuzalwa engxenyeni yeso), kanye nokutheleleka kwe-TORCH (ukutheleleka okudluliselwa kusuka kumama okhulelwe kuya enganeni). |
Iphathwa kanjani?
I-Leukocoria yelashwa ngokusekelwe embangela eyinhloko. Udokotela wakho uzokwenza izivivinyo ezidingekayo, anqume imbangela eqondile, futhi ancome ukwelashwa okufanele kakhulu.
Ukwelashwa kwe-cataracts
Lena imbangela evame kakhulu futhi elula ukuyelapha. Inqubo evame kakhulu ukususa ilensi enamafu ngokuhlinzwa bese uyifaka esikhundleni sayo ngelensi yokwenziwa. Lokhu kungaphumelela kakhulu ezinganeni.
Ukwelashwa kwe-Retinoblastoma
Lokhu kuyinkimbinkimbi kancane. Ukwelashwa kwalo mdlavuza kuncike ezintweni eziningi, njengendawo lapho kukhona khona isimila, ubukhulu baso, nokuthi ngabe sisabalele yini.
Njengezindlela zokwelapha:
- Ukwelashwa ngamakhemikhali
- Ukwelashwa ngemisebe
- Ukwelashwa nge-Cryotherapy
- Ukwelashwa Nge-Thermotherapy
Ukwelashwa okukodwa noma ngaphezulu kungasetshenziswa ndawonye. Into ebaluleke kakhulu lapha ukuxilonga lesi sifo bese uqala ukwelashwa ngokushesha okukhulu. Ngaleyo ndlela, iso lengane kanye nokubona kwayo kungenzeka kakhulu ukuthi kusindiswe.
Ukwelashwa kwezinye izimo ezingavamile kuyahlukahluka. Udokotela wakho uzokuchazela isimo ngasinye ngokucacile futhi akuchazele ukwelashwa okungcono kakhulu kwaso.
Lokho ongakwenza njengomzali
Esikhathini esiningi, uma uya emtholampilo wezingane, udokotela uhlola amehlo engane ukuze abone ukuthi ayinalo yini lolu 'phawu olubomvu'. Kodwa ngezinye izikhathi, njengabazali, niqala ukubona lokhu esithombeni.
Ngakho-ke, khumbula lokhu uma ubheka izithombe zengane yakho. Lokhu akusho ukuthi kufanele ubheke zonke izithombe ngokusola. Kodwa uma ubona okuthile okusolisayo, ungakushayi indiva.
Khumbula, i-retinoblastoma ibangela cishe umdlavuza wamehlo owodwa kwabahlanu ebuntwaneni. Ngakho-ke, ukutholakala nokwelashwa kusenesikhathi kwandisa kakhulu amathuba okusindisa impilo yengane, kanye namehlo ayo kanye nokubona kwayo.
Ngakho-ke, uma ubona noma yiziphi zalezi zimpawu, into engcono kakhulu futhi okuwukuphela kwayo okufanele uyenze ukufuna iseluleko sezokwelapha, kunokufuna ulwazi ku-inthanethi.
Umlayezo Wokuya Nawe Ekhaya
- Uma i-iris yengane ibonakala imhlophe, ingwevu, noma iphuzi esithombeni, ibizwa ngokuthi i-leukocoria.
- Nakuba imbangela evame kakhulu yalokhu kuyisimo esingelapheka njenge-cataracts, kungaba futhi uphawu lomdlavuza wamehlo ongathi sína obizwa ngokuthi i-retinoblastoma.
- Ungakhathazeki ngokukubona esithombeni esisodwa nje kuphela. Thatha ezinye izithombe ezimbalwa ngezindlela ezahlukene bese uhlola.
- Uma i-ringworm emnyama iqhubeka nokubonakala imhlophe ngokuphelele ezithombeni eziningana, ungalibali futhi ubone udokotela wezingane noma udokotela wamehlo ngokushesha.
- Ukutholwa kusenesikhathi kwandisa kakhulu amathuba okusindisa iso lengane, umbono, ngisho nokuphila. Ungalokothi ungazinaki izimpawu ezinjengalezi.
