Omma is used in Matthew and Mark, speaking of the healing of eyes;
Matthew 20:29. Then when they went from Jericho a huge crowd followed Him. 30. And behold when two blind people sitting by the way heard that Y’shua was passing by, they cried out saying, “You must immediately have mercy on us! Lord! Son of David! 31. Then the crowd rebuked them so that they would be quiet: but they cried out more saying, “You must now have mercy on us! Lord! Son of David!” 32. And after Y’shua stopped He called them and said, “What do you want Me to do for you?” 33. They said to Him, “Lord, that our eyes would open.” 34. And Y’shua, having compassion, touched their eyes, and they immediately regained their sight and they followed Him.
