Higher intraocular pressure is associated with leukoaraiosis among middle-aged and elderly Koreans without glaucoma or dementia

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma is Associated with MR Biomarkers of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease

“…This finding is in keeping with the observations of Park et al . 12 who recently demonstrated that high values of IOP were positively associated with the presence of deep white matter hyper intensities in middle-aged and elderly subjects without glaucoma. Other than this, to our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of a significant association between POAG and cerebral small vessel disease.…”

“…A previous study by Stroman et al . found larger numbers of white-matter lesions in patients with NTG than controls 11 and a recent study demonstrated that intraocular pressure was higher in normal individuals with evidence of cerebral white-matter lesions 12 .…”
