Kahibalo ba ka? 👁️
Naay tawag Boney Spicules sa mata? 🦴
Pero walay Bukog / Bone ang sulod sa mata!

Ang atong mata kay hinimo sa mga soft tissues (pareha sa cornea, lens, ug retina) dili bukog.

Pero kung makadungog ka ug “bony spicules” sa mata, dili na pasabot nga naa gyud bukog diha.
Kini nga termino gigamit sa Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) — usa ka genetic nga sakit sa mata nga makita ang itom nga mga pigment nga mura’g porma sa bukog sa retina.

Ang tinuod, kana nga mga “spicules” mao na ang mga pigment gikan sa retinal cells nga namatay ug nibalhin palibot sa mga ugat sa mata.

Retinoblastoma and Genetics: Does Family History Matter?
Yes—retinoblastoma can run in families. Children with a parent or sibling who had the disease have a higher risk.
➡️ Genetic counseling and early screening are crucial for families with a history of retinoblastoma.
➡️ Early detection means better chances of saving sight—and life.
If retinoblastoma is in your family, talk to your doctor about genetic testing.

A PUBLIC ADVISORY FROM THE PHILIPPINE ACADEMY OF OPHTHALMOLOGY: Beware of unproven eye medicine, eye drops, and eye devices that are being peddled as a cure-all or prevention of different eye conditions. Consult your ophthalmologist for the proper care of your eyes.
