Meta-Analysis of Association of Obstructive Sleep Apnea With Glaucoma

Abstract: OSA was a risk factor for glaucoma. A large number of studies is needed to explore the mechanisms that link OSA with glaucoma.

“…32 In contrast a meta-analysis involving 2 288 701 participants shows that OSA is a risk factor for glaucoma, higher in Chinese population, female or younger population. 33 Our study also found an increase prevalence in patients with severe AHI, exploring the relationship of the severity of OSA, as suggested in this meta-analysis. There was no difference in POAG prevalence in the general Italian and our study cohort.…”

“…Inflation bias or “p‐hacking” was tested with a P‐curve analysis . Post hoc sensitivity analysis was conducted to evaluate the influence of a single study on the overall effect estimate by stepwise omitting, one by one, each of the studies included in the meta‐analysis and re‐evaluating the summary effect estimates . Post hoc analysis was conducted on study design.…”

“…OSA predisposes the optic nerve head to ischemia and damage through episodes of hypoxia, hemodynamic changes to retinal blood vessels, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysregulation, and inflammation. 18,20,21 This proclivity to damage leads to the nerve fiber dysfunction and degeneration seen in glaucoma. Patients with OSA may possess optic nerve heads more sensitive to mechanical damage given their poor perfusion and potential for ischemic changes.…”

“…The exact etiology remains unclear. 16 Studies have demonstrated an association with OSA and both NTG and OAG. 5,9,17 A meta-analysis of 3 case-control studies, including 711 cases and 6,709 controls, found an odds ratio (OR) of 2.46 for the association between OSA and glaucoma.…”
