Abstract:
Abstract Background- Glaucoma is one of the world's leading contributors to blindness. The most significant risk factor is intraocular pressure. However, some instances proceed despite intraocular pressure reduction, confirming the view that glaucoma pathogenesis may include additional individual risk factors, not just I.O.P. as previously thought. Few studies have demonstrated the concentration of serum lipids to be linked to the incidence of glaucoma. The study's objective was to see if there is any association between elevated blood lipid levels and the development of Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG). Methods and materials – This study included 20 people with POAG and 20 who did not have glaucoma (controls). All patients had an ophthalmic examination, and a fasting lipid profile was conducted on each participant, which encompassed the following investigations: 1) Total cholesterol, 2) Triglyceride levels, 3) Low-Density Lipoproteins (LDL), and 4) High-Density Lipoproteins (HDL) levels. These variables were compared and contrasted between the experimental and control groups. Results- With a p-value of < 0.05, the values of Total cholesterol, Triglycerides, and LDL were dramatically higher in cases than in the control group. Patients had lower HDL levels than controls, but the disparity in HDL levels is statistically insignificant. Conclusion- Dyslipidemia is a health concern for POAG on its own. POAG is noticeably associated with high serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL.
