Ofufuza a Yale adapeza kuti Zika imakhudzanso kukula kwa magawo a diso nthawi yakubereka-chifukwa chake, nkhani yokhudza glaucoma. Ndi matenda ovuta pomwe kuwonongeka kwa mitsempha ya optic kumabweretsa kuwonongeka kwapang'onopang'ono komanso kosatha. Malinga ndi Glaucoma Research Foundation, ndi chifukwa chachiwiri chomwe chimayambitsa khungu.

Kulumikizana uku pakati pa Zika ndi glaucoma ndizochitika zoyamba zamtundu wake; akufufuza za microcephaly ku Brazil, ofufuzawo adazindikira mwana wamwamuna wazaka zitatu yemwe adayamba kutupa, kupweteka, ndikung'amba m'diso lakumanja. Anazindikira kuti ali ndi glaucoma ndipo adachita opareshoni kuti athane ndi kuthamanga kwa diso. Chifukwa ichi ndi vuto loyamba, ofufuzawo akuti pakufunika kafukufuku wowonjezera kuti adziwe ngati glaucoma mwa makanda omwe ali ndi Zika amayamba chifukwa cha kachilombo koyambitsa kachilombo ka HIV, mwina panthawi yobereka kapena pambuyo pobereka.

ICYMI, iyi ndi BFD chifukwa Zika yakhala ikufalikira ngati wamisala; Chiwerengero cha amayi apakati ku US ndi madera ake omwe ali ndi kachilomboka chakwera kuchoka pa 279 mu Meyi 2016 mpaka kupitirira 2,500, malinga ndi CDC. Ndipo muyenera kusamalira ngakhale simuli ndi pakati kapena mukukonzekera kutenga pakati posachedwa; Zika atha kukhala ndi zovuta zake muubongo wachikulire nawonso. Ikhoza kukhala nthawi yosungira mankhwala ophera tizilombo a Zika (ndipo nthawi zonse mugwiritse ntchito makondomu-Zika amathanso kupatsirana panthawi yogonana).
