Ngokusho kweNational Union of Ophthalmologists yaseFrance (SNOF), i-myopia ithinta i-25 kuya ku-30% yabantu abasha abaneminyaka engu-16 kuya ku-24. Kodwa-ke, i-myopia ishintsha kuze kube sekupheleni kokukhula kweso, okuphakathi kweminyaka engu-25 ubudala. Ngaphezu kwalokho, lapho i-myopia inkulu, ingozi enkulu ye-ocular pathology. Ukuphathwa okubanzi futhi kusenesikhathi kokuthuthukiswa kwe-myopia kuba kubalulekile, ngoba i-myopia elungisiwe kusenesikhathi ivumela abantu abasha, uma sebekhulile, ukuthi balondoloze izinga labo lokuqala le-myopia.
Uke wacabanga ngamalensi asebusuku?
Le nqubo ifakazelwe iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-20! Lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi i-orthokeratology, ebizwa nangokuthi "amalensi asebusuku". Uma ugqokwa ngesikhathi ulele, lawa ma-lens akha kabusha i-cornea ukuze anxephezele iphutha elibonakalayo futhi akuvumela ukuthi ubone kahle emini ngaphandle kokugqoka izibuko noma amalensi okuxhumana.
Amalensi asebusuku athathwa njengekhambi elisebenzayo lokunqanda i-myopia yobuntwana (kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ihlotshaniswa ne-astigmatism noma cha). Amalensi asebusuku aphephile futhi angenabuhlungu, afanelekile nawo anenzuzo yokungahlaseli futhi abuyiseleke emuva ngokuphelele: abagqokile bangakhetha enye imodi yokulungisa noma kunini.
Asikho isidingo semishini ebonakalayo emini!
Enye inzuzo: ukugqoka ama-lens ebusuku kuyisiqinisekiso senkululeko yansuku zonke. Ngempela, izingane zinombono ocacile usuku lonke, futhi zikhululekile kunoma iyiphi into ebonakalayo! Ngakho-ke, bangakwazi ukwenza imisebenzi yabo eyintandokazi ngaphandle kokuvinjelwa, okwenza kube nokwenzeka ukugwema izinkinga zokuphuka noma ukulahlekelwa.
Ngakho-ke abazali bayaqinisekiswa, ngoba ngaphezu kwenhlalakahle yezingane zabo, baphatha ama-lens abo ebusuku ngaphansi kokulawula kwabo, okuyisiqinisekiso sokuphepha ukugwema noma iyiphi ingozi yokutheleleka.

AMALENSI ASEBUSUKU: UBUCHWEPHESHE BE-PRECILENS
Umkhiqizi ongumFulentshi nomsunguli welensi yokuqala ethambile eqhubekayo emhlabeni, i-Precilens ihlale isungula izinto ezintsha. Yile ndlela ubuchwepheshe bayo ekwakhiweni kwamalensi, ikakhulukazi ekulawuleni i-myopia kanye ne-orthokeratology, buthole ubukhulu bamazwe ngamazwe. I-Precilens manje inikeza imiklamo emibili eyingqayizivele ecabangela izinga le-myopia futhi ngaleyo ndlela ivumela ukusebenza kahle kokwelashwa okungcono: I-DRL Control Myopia enikezelwe ku-myopia efika ku- -7.00D kanye ne-DRL PREVENTION, enikezelwe ngokukhethekile ku-myopia ephansi. Lokhu kwelashwa komuntu siqu kuthuthukisa ukuphathwa kwe-myopia eqhubekayo futhi kwenza amalensi asebusuku e-DRL abe yisixazululo esibalulekile somugqa wokuqala.
