| Popis: | Purpose: To investigate the association between intraocular pressure (IOP) and serum testosterone according to the severity of obesity. Materials and Methods: We investigated the correlation of IOP-testosterone according to the anthropometric obesity indices, such as obesity index (OI), body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference to height ratio (WtHR). Each of the obesity indices was classified into three groups: normal, overweight, and obesity. In additional, the association of IOP-testosterone was compared between testosterone 3.0 ng/mL below and above. Results: Total of 3,949 participants, the mean age was 58.86±10.06 years, mean IOP was 14.40±2.61 mmHg, mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) was 93.67±11.47 mmHg, and mean serum testosterone was 4.21±1.83 ng/mL. The association of MAP and IOP was significantly positively correlated according to the severity of obesity, but testosterone showed a significant negative relationship (p |
