“近視”低齡化趨勢(shì)令人堪憂
中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng) 2018-06-05 11:59
6月6日是第23個(gè)全國(guó)愛(ài)眼日。4日上午,國(guó)家衛(wèi)生健康委員會(huì)召開(kāi)專題新聞發(fā)布會(huì),介紹兒童青少年科學(xué)防控近視情況以及剛剛發(fā)布的《近視防治指南》《弱視診治指南》和《斜視診治指南》三部指南。
近年來(lái),兒童青少年的近視問(wèn)題日益嚴(yán)重且低齡趨勢(shì)明顯,已成為重大社會(huì)公共衛(wèi)生問(wèn)題。今天我們就來(lái)看看和“近視”相關(guān)的表達(dá)。
近視
近視的醫(yī)學(xué)專業(yè)術(shù)語(yǔ)是myopia,但是日常生活中人們都不會(huì)說(shuō),通常大家會(huì)說(shuō)nearsighted / shortsighted。
Tom is nearsighted/shortsighted because he used to play games in darkness whole night long.
湯姆近視是因?yàn)樗^(guò)去經(jīng)常晚上在黑夜里玩一整晚游戲。
遠(yuǎn)視
遠(yuǎn)視的醫(yī)學(xué)專業(yè)術(shù)語(yǔ)是hyperopia,但是同樣,人們也不會(huì)這樣說(shuō),一般會(huì)說(shuō)farsighted/ longsighted。嗯,和近視的單詞其實(shí)是對(duì)應(yīng)的。
Lily's grandpa is farsighted so he needs to hold the newspaper far from eyes.
莉莉的爺爺有遠(yuǎn)視,所以報(bào)紙總要拿得很遠(yuǎn)。
散光
散光的名詞是astigmatism,如果要表達(dá)自己有散光可以說(shuō):I am astigmatic.
度數(shù)
在中文中,我們會(huì)說(shuō)“我近視200度”、“我散光100度”,于是,當(dāng)我們要用英文來(lái)表達(dá)自己的度數(shù)時(shí),第一反應(yīng)就是“degree”,然而你這么說(shuō),也不會(huì)有人聽(tīng)懂...
英文中有兩個(gè)詞是表達(dá)眼睛度數(shù)的:prescription和diopters
不同的是,prescription 指的是眼睛的度數(shù),而diopters則是眼睛度數(shù)的單位,也就是屈光度。
negative diopters (近視度數(shù))
positive diopters(遠(yuǎn)視度數(shù))
通常配眼鏡或者問(wèn)別人眼睛度數(shù)的時(shí)候,可以說(shuō):
What's your eyeglasses prescription?
What is your eyesight?
How good is your vision?
如果想回答“我近視/遠(yuǎn)視400度”,可以說(shuō):
I am nearsighted/farsighted with 4.0 diopters.
再給大家補(bǔ)充一些相關(guān)知識(shí):
眼鏡還有另一種說(shuō)法:spectacles,其實(shí)和glasses是同等用法,只不過(guò)是spectacles這個(gè)單詞比較正式,一般人不會(huì)這么說(shuō)話罷了...
隱形眼鏡:contact lenses
眼科醫(yī)生:eye doctor/ophthalmologist
無(wú)框眼鏡:rimless glasses
角膜:cornea
瞳孔:pupil
眼球:eyeball
近視不深、頗深、極深的說(shuō)法:mildly/moderately/ severely shortsighted.
眼保健操:eye exercises
想去配眼鏡,最直接的表達(dá)就是:get a pair of glasses
關(guān)于近視的表達(dá):
1. I'll have my sight tested tomorrow. My vision is a little blurry recently.
最近看東西有點(diǎn)模糊,我明天去檢查視力?!?/p>
2. He finally realized that he was shortsighted and went to the optician.
他終于明白他眼睛近視了,于是去配了眼鏡。
3. You'll go cross-eyed.
你會(huì)變斜視眼的。
4. I have high astigmatism, and at night when I look at the stars or streetlamps, the light distorts into a diamond like shape.
我散光度數(shù)很高,晚上看星星或路燈的時(shí)候,覺(jué)得燈光看起來(lái)像鉆石的光芒一樣。
5. I have double-vision.
我有復(fù)視。
6. You may wear a patch over your good eye to help fix your lazy eye.
在視力正常的眼睛上帶個(gè)眼罩有利于糾正另一只眼睛的弱視?!?/p>
7. How strong are your glasses? 4 diopters.
你近視多少度?四百度。
8. Her eyesight grew dim with age.

9. Some people can have their vision restored by a surgical operation.
有些人可以通過(guò)外科手術(shù)恢復(fù)視力?!?/p>
10. You're so lucky to have 20/20 vision.
你有1.0的視力,真幸運(yùn)。
