Uma ngabe uthola ukuthi une- macular degeneration (AMD) mhlawumbe uzizwa ukhathazekile ngombono wakho wesikhathi esizayo. Ukuphila ngokulahlekelwa kombono kudinga ukulungisa indlela yokuphila. Izici ezibalulekile zokuphila ezithintekayo kufaka ukushayela, ukufunda, nokuqhuba imisebenzi emihle ehamba phambili efuna uhla olugcwele lwemibono, njengokuthunga nokusebenzisa amathuluzi.
Ukusekela kanye nezinguquko ezincane kungasiza, hhayi nje ukukusiza ulungise kodwa futhi ukukusiza ngemisebenzi yansuku zonke.
Uzwela
Ukuxilongwa kokulahleka kombono kungase kube kubi ekuqaleni. Ungase ucabange impilo yokuzihlukanisa nabantu kanye nokulahlekelwa ukuzimela. Ungesaba ukuthi uzolahlekelwa ikhono lokuzibandakanya emisebenzini nasemisebenzini yokuzilibazisa oyithandayo. Ungase uzwe ukwesaba futhi udidekile ngekusasa lakho.
Kodwa-ke, abacwaningi bayathuthuka ngokushesha ezindaweni eziningi zokusekela imibono nokuvimbela izifo. Ezinye izinhlobo ze-macular degeneration zingelashwa ngezijovo ezithile ezweni, nge-photodynamic therapy, noma ngokuhlinza laser.
Nakuba engekho kulezi zindlela zokwelashwa kuzokwelapha lesi sifo kududuza ukwazi ukuthi ngamunye anganciphisa izinga lokulahlekelwa kombono.
Physical
Ukwehla kwe-macular ngokuvamile kubangela ukulahlekelwa okuncane, okungenakubuhlungu kombono. Nokho, kwezinye izimo, ukulahleka kombono kungazelelwe.
Izimpawu zokuqala zokulahlekelwa kombono kusuka ku-AMD zibandakanya izindawo ezithambile embonweni oyinhloko noma umbono ongavamile noma ongeyiphutha. Udokotela wakho wezilanga kungenzeka ukuthi ubheka igridi ye-Amsler ukubona ukuthi kukhona yini ukuphazamiseka noma imigqa engekho.
Ngenkathi kungekho ukwelashwa okukhona kwe-macular degeneration ngalesi sikhathi, kunezinye izindlela zokwelapha ezitholakalayo ezingase ziphuze ukuqhubekela phambili noma ngezinye izikhathi ngisho nokuthuthukisa umbono.
Udokotela wakho angase asiphakamise ukuthatha i-multivitamin, engasiza ekuvimbeleni ukuqhubeka kwayo kwifomu elimanzi, elibi kakhulu. Ucwaningo oluthile lubonisa ukuthi ukudla okucebile ku-saumoni nezinye izinhlanzi zamanzi abandayo kungasiza ekuvimbeleni lesi sifo noma ukunciphisa ingozi yokuqhubeka kwayo.
Social
I-American Academy of Ophthalmology iyaqaphela inyanga kaFebhuwari njengenyanga yokuqwashisa ehambisana nobudala be-Macular Degeneration Awareness. Ukwehla kwe-macular, noma i-AMD, yisizathu esiyinhloko esiyisizwe sokulahleka kombono.
Ngomunye uFebhuwari, abaseMelika abangaphezu kweminyaka engama-60 bakhuthazwa ukuba bafunde izimpawu zokuxwayisa ze-AMD futhi bahlele ukuhlolwa kwamehlo okugubha ngonyaka. Odokotela bezandla kulo lonke izwe bazama ukuphakamisa amathuluzi nezinsiza ezingasiza iziguli zabo ze-AMD ziphila ngokuzimela okuningi.
Kuyawusizo
Into eyodwa ongayenza ukusiza ukuvumelanisa nokulahleka kombono ukufunda izindlela ezintsha zokwenza izinto ozenza nsuku zonke. Nakuba ukulahlekelwa kombono wakho kungabuyiselwa, udokotela wakho uzokusiza uthole izindlela zokulungisa nokusebenza kangcono ngemibono yakho esele.
Udokotela wakho we- eye uzokubuza nganoma yikuphi ukulinganiselwa okungokwenyama okukuyo, bese ubeka amadivayisi optical ukukusiza. Isibonelo sedivayisi ewusizo ngumklomelo, okwenza ukwazi ukwandisa usayizi wezinto ukukusiza ukuba uzibuke kalula.
Udokotela wakho angase akubhekise esikhungweni sokubuyiselwa kombono noma emtholampilo weso ukuze usebenze eduze nomtholampilo womqondo ophansi. Umeluleki wombono ophansi ungakusiza ukuba uvumelane nombono wakho oguqukayo kanye nosizo ekuxazululeni izinkinga ezithile ongase ubhekane nazo ngombono wehle.
Udokotela angase akusize nokuba ushintshe imvelo yakho ukwenza kube lula ukuhamba. Ngaphezu kwalokho, angakusiza ukuba ukwandise izinzwa zakho zokuzwa nokuthinta, ubheke umbono wakho wendawo, futhi ufunde ukuthi ungasebenzisa kanjani izinsiza ezibonakalayo eziphansi ukuze usize ngemisebenzi yansuku zonke.
Wena wenza futhi ukuguqulwa ekhaya lakho.
Zama lokhu okukhethwa kukho:
- Sebenzisa izibani eziphezulu, izibani zokusebenza, izibani zokukhanya, nezibani ezengeziwe ezitebhisini
- Maka umkhawulo wezinyathelo nge-tape ekhanyayo
- Faka futhi ubeke izinyathelo ngezinyathelo nezitebhisi
- Maka ukushintsha okukhanyayo nezindawo zokugesi ezine-tape ekhanyayo
- Gcina izindawo zokuhamba zivulekile futhi zicacile
- Sebenzisa amathabhu angenazikhwama futhi ubambe imigoqo ezindlini zokugeza
- Sebenzisa imibala ehlukisayo ukubeka isihlalo sezindlu zangasese, umbhede ophansi, ibhuloho, njll
- Imithi ye-Label enezinsimbi ezinkulu zokuphrinta noma i-tape
- Susa iminyango yangaphakathi
- Yenza imibundu igubungele phansi noma emagumbini
- Maka uphawu lwe-thermostat, i-oven nesiqandisini ngezinsimbi ezinkulu zokuphrinta noma i-tape
- Maka amakhompiyutha wekhompyutha ngamalebula aphakanyisiwe
Kungathatha isikhashana ukujwayele ukwenza izinto ngendlela ehlukile, futhi kungenzeka ukuthi uzizwe ucindezelekile. Khuluma nomuntu ngalokhu bese uhamba uma kufanele. Ekugcineni, uzobona ukuthi ungaqhubeka kanjani ukwenza imisebenzi yansuku zonke nokuzilibazisa.
