Abstract excerpt
High intraocular pressure (IOP) is an important risk factor for glaucoma, which is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, the etiology of high IOP remains uncertain. Metabolites are compounds involved in metabolism which provide a link between the internal (genetic) and external environments. O-methylascorbate has been reported to be associated with IOP. In addition, researchers have identified...
