    ABSTRACT: Purpose To test for causality with regard to the association between blood pressure (BP) and intraocular pressure (IOP) and glaucoma. Methods Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with BP were identified in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of 526,001 participants of European ancestry. These SNPs were used to assess the BP versus IOP relationship in a distinct sample (n = 70,832) whose corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) was measured. To evaluate the BP versus primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) relationship, additional Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were conducted using published GWAS summary statistics. Results Observational analysis revealed a linear relationship between BP traits and IOPcc, with a +0.28 mm Hg increase in IOPcc per 10-mm Hg inc

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Diet

  • sodium restriction for blood pressure Moderate

    Genetic elevation of blood pressure can be modulated by dietary sodium reduction, a key environmental modulator

    Limit sodium intake to less than 2300mg daily

Exercise

  • regular aerobic exercise Moderate

    Aerobic exercise reduces blood pressure; particularly relevant given genetic predisposition to elevated systolic BP

    150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity

Screening

  • systolic blood pressure monitoring Moderate

    rs10169882-T allele associates with elevated systolic blood pressure in large GWAS cohort (n=526001, effect=0.266 mmHg)

    Check blood pressure annually or at regular healthcare visits
