Associations between serum lipids and glaucoma: a cohort study of 400 229 UK Biobank participants
Elevated HDL-C is associated with an increased risk of glaucoma, while elevated LDL-C, TC, and TG levels are associated with a lower risk of glaucoma. This study enhances our understanding of the association between lipid profile and glaucoma and warrants further investigation of lipid-focused treatments in glaucoma management.
