    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

  • limit sodium intake for BP management Moderate

    Dietary sodium restriction helps manage blood pressure and can reduce impact of genetic predisposition.

    Limit sodium to <2300 mg per day, or <1500 mg if recommended by doctor

Discuss with your doctor

  • cardiovascular risk assessment and management plan Moderate

    Genetic predisposition to higher blood pressure should be incorporated into overall cardiovascular risk assessment.

    Discuss this genetic finding with your doctor and develop a personalized management plan

Exercise

  • aerobic exercise for BP management Moderate

    Regular aerobic exercise reduces blood pressure and can mitigate genetic predisposition.

    Aim for 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week

Lifestyle

  • cardiovascular lifestyle measures for BP management Moderate

    Lifestyle interventions can offset genetic predisposition to elevated blood pressure.

    Consider stress reduction, weight management, limiting alcohol

Screening

  • blood pressure monitoring Moderate

    Genetic predisposition to higher systolic blood pressure requires regular monitoring to detect hypertension early.

    Check blood pressure annually (or more often if advised by doctor)
