A South Florida high school senior nearly lost her vision after a parasite grew on her contact lens and began eating through her cornea.
来自美国南佛罗里达州的一位高中毕业班女生,因为带隐形眼镜造成寄生虫滋生,眼睛差点失去视力。根据医生的检查,寄生虫正在吞噬她的眼角膜。
One of Ashley Hyde's eyes was red and throbbing but doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong.
这位女生叫艾希莉-海德,她因为一只眼睛红肿悸痛去看医生,但大夫们也都查不出是什么问题。
Hyde even had to have her eye scraped by doctors to gather cultures of the organism. "One time, they had to drill into my eye. It was really nasty," she said.
医生们为了提取眼组织细胞进行检查,甚至需要刮擦艾希莉的眼睛。她描述道:“其中一次检查医生们要用仪器钻进我的眼睛里,特别恶心。”
Doctors discovered Hyde, 18, had an acanthamoeba infection. Acanthamoeba is a microscopic parasite found in water and soil that can spread through contact lens use, cuts, or skin wounds or by being inhaled into the lungs.
医生们检查结果发现,18岁的艾希莉感染上了棘阿米巴炎症,棘阿米巴是一种通常出现在水里或土壤里的极小的寄生虫,会通过隐形眼镜镜片、切口或是皮肤伤口传播,也会被直接吸入进肺里。
"Every day, we see people come in with contact lens related to infections, complications, ulcers," said Dr. Adam Clarin, an optometric physician.
验光医师亚当-克拉瑞医生表示:“每天我们都会接待因为佩戴隐形眼镜而造成感染、并发症和溃疡的患者。”
Clarin recommends patients use disposable contacts for daily use. "There is nothing safer or healthier than throwing out the lens every day and starting with a new one the next day," added Clarin.
克拉瑞医生建议病人使用一次性的日抛镜片。“只有每天把使用过的镜片丢掉,第二天再使用新的镜片,这样才安全健康。”
Hyde must undergo several more months of treatment and advises contact users never skip a step when cleaning their lenses. "It hurts," she said. "I wouldn't risk it."
艾希莉得接受好几个月的治疗,她建议隐形眼镜使用者千万别偷懒,记得要清洁镜片。她说:“真的特别疼,我再也不会冒这样的险了。”
