Intraocular Pressure, Glaucoma, and Dietary Caffeine Consumption: A Gene-Diet Interaction Study from the UK Biobank.

Habitual caffeine consumption was associated weakly with lower IOP, and the association between caffeine consumption and glaucoma was null.

The Association of Alcohol Consumption with Glaucoma and Related Traits: Findings from the UK Biobank.

Alcohol intake was consistently and adversely associated with glaucoma and related traits, and at levels below current United Kingdom (< 112 g/week) and United States (women, < 98 g/week; men, < 196 g/week) guidelines.

Statin Use in Relation to Intraocular Pressure, Glaucoma, and Ocular Coherence Tomography Parameters in the UK Biobank.

We found no evidence of a protective association between statin use and glaucoma or related traits after adjusting for key confounders.

The Association of Urinary Sodium Excretion with Glaucoma and Related Traits in a Large United Kingdom Population.

Urinary sodium excretion, a biomarker of dietary intake, may represent an important modifiable risk factor for glaucoma, especially in individuals at high underlying genetic risk.

Does Age Modify the Relation Between Genetic Predisposition to Glaucoma and Various Glaucoma Traits in the UK Biobank?

With increasing age, an mtGPRS was a better predictor of higher IOP and glaucoma prevalence. It is useful to consider chronological age with genetic information in designing glaucoma screening strategies.
