Mitä ovat kuivat silmät?
Silmät ovat kuivat, kun ne eivät tuota tarpeeksi kyynelnestettä tai kun se haihtuu liian nopeasti.
Oireet
Kuivat silmät ovat yleinen ongelma, joka vaivaa yleensä molempia silmiä. Oireet voivat vaihdella hyvin lievistä jopa elämänlaatuun vaikuttaviin vakaviin oireisiin. Kuivien silmien oireita voivat olla
kuivuuden tai hiekan tunne silmissä
silmien arkuus tai väsymys
vuotavat silmät
näön sumentuminen, joka paranee silmiä räpäytettäessä.
Yleiset syyt
Kuivasilmäisyys on suhteellisen yleistä. Arvioiden mukaan yli 25 prosentilla yli 50‑vuotiaista on kuivat silmät. Kuivasilmäisyys voi johtua esimerkiksi:
kuumassa tai kuivassa ympäristössä olemisesta
piilolinssien käytöstä
hormonaalisista muutoksista (kuten vaihdevuodet)
sairaudesta tai lääkityksestä, jotka aiheuttavat limakalvojen kuivumista
silmäluomen ongelmista, jotka voivat vaikuttaa kyynelkalvoon
Hoito
Ota yhteys optikkoosi, jos sinulla ilmenee kuivasilmäisyyden oireita. Hän neuvoo kuinka niitä voi lievittää.
Jos kuivasilmäisyys johtuu taustalla olevasta sairaudesta, sen hoitaminen voi auttaa lievittämään oireita.
Jos silmäsi ovat erittäin valoherkät, hyvin punaiset yhdistettynä kovaan kipuun ja näkösi on heikentynyt, hakeudu välittömästi silmälääkärin vastaanotolle. Useimmat Specsavers‑liikkeet tarjoavat myös silmälääkäripalveluja.
