Smoking, Corneal Biomechanics, and Glaucoma: Results From Two Large Population-Based Cohorts.

Cigarette smoking seems to increase corneal biomechanical resistance to deformation, but there was little evidence to support a relationship with glaucoma.

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.

Relationship Between Oral Health and Glaucoma Traits in the United Kingdom.

Self-reported oral health was not associated with elevated IOP or an increased risk of glaucoma. Future studies should confirm the null association between clinically diagnosed oral health conditions and glaucoma.

Differentiating glaucoma from chiasmal compression using optical coherence tomography: the macular naso-temporal ratio.

The mNTR can distinguish between chiasmal compression and POAG with high discrimination.
