Abstract
Previous studies reported that hyperlipidemia and blood lipid levels were associated
with glaucoma, ocular hypertension (OHT), and intraocular pressure (IOP). However,
studies aimed at investigating this association have yielded conflicting results.
Therefore, to shed light on these inconclusive findings, we performed multiple distinct
meta-analyses to clarify the association of hyperlipidemia and blood lipid levels
with glaucoma, OHT, and IOP.
