眼矇未必度數增 45%長者驗眼揭白內障
 

眼矇未必度數增 45%長者驗眼揭白內障

年紀大開始眼矇矇,但非所有長者都有意識定期驗眼。香港執業眼科視光師協會調查發現,50%老友記或其朋友購物時曾因眼矇而看錯包裝資料或價錢;32%更曾因此跌倒。長者眼矇可因不同眼疾引起,但不少長者感到視力不清晰時,只買現成老花眼鏡應付,或錯過治療令病情惡化。

協會於今年4月至8月,以問卷訪問185名使用醫療卷接受眼科視光師服務的長者,及50名視光師。調查發現,有98%長者驗眼時發現有散光,100%長者有老花。除了度數增加,45%長者驗出白內障、11%黃斑病變、6%眼壓高、2%眼底血管異常。受訪眼科視光師表示,有22%需轉介作進一步跟進,4%更有嚴重眼疾徵兆,需即時入院或緊急做手術。

協會會長鄭偉澤表示,調查中有21%長者是首次驗眼或配眼鏡,不少長者以為眼矇是度數問題,不知可由眼疾引起,而視光師檢查可同時找出黃斑病變,白內障徵兆,即時轉介及治療。醫療券可增加長者接受眼科檢查誘因,減低永久視力受損機會。

71歲的鄧先生從未驗眼,因自覺有老花,於日用品店購買200度老花眼鏡,惟近月戴現成眼鏡後仍感眼矇,連迎面而來的巴士號碼也看不清,始接受視光師驗眼。視光師發現他有遠視和散光,更已患中度白內障,需接受眼科治療。

鄭偉澤提醒,現成眼鏡左右眼度數相同,未能根據病人情況調節及沒有散光等度數,即使感覺戴上後視力較清晰,可能是眼球肌肉拉扯以適應眼鏡,令眼睛勞損。他建議長者,如發現自己出現「叉錯腳」或踢到物件、側邊視力不佳、眼皮腫脹等,應盡快驗眼,平時亦應一年定期驗一次眼。
