代谢综合征及其组分与开角型青光眼相关性的研究进展

开角型青光眼是青光眼分型中的一种，也是引起致盲的主要原因之一。近年来，开角型青光眼的发病率和致盲率逐年增加，其发病原因尚不清楚，目前发现代谢综合征与开角型青光眼的发生发展有一定的相关性。但两者间的研究结果尚无统一认识。本文就目前开角型青光眼与代谢综合征及其组分的相关研究进行综述。

Progress on the relationship between metabolic syndrome with its components and open angle glaucoma

Open angle glaucoma is one kind of glaucoma, and also one of the leading causes of blindness. In recent years, the incidence of open angle glaucoma and the rate of blindness caused by it are increasing year by year, whereas its etiology is still not clear. Recently, researchers have found that there might be certain correlation between metabolic syndrome with its components and the occurrence and the development of open angle glaucoma, on which there is not any common understanding yet. In this paper, we try to provide a brief review on the researches of open angle glaucoma and metabolic syndrome.
