    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

  • DASH dietary pattern Moderate

    DASH diet reduces systolic blood pressure; beneficial for carriers of genetic BP-raising variant

    emphasize vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean proteins; limit sodium to <2300 mg daily

Exercise

  • regular aerobic exercise Moderate

    Aerobic activity reduces systolic blood pressure; beneficial for carriers of genetic BP-raising variant

    150 minutes weekly of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise

Screening

  • systolic blood pressure Moderate

    rs11955050 associates with elevated systolic blood pressure in large GWAS cohort (n=526001, p=2e-11)

    baseline measurement by age 25, annual monitoring thereafter
