One hundred patients were selected randomly from POAG patients of glaucoma clinic, Farabi Eye Hospital. Control group consists of 100 patients, candidates for cataract surgery. History of any anti-hypertensive agent consumption was recorded for all participants. A complete set of systemic and ophthalmologic examinations, including several blood pressure measurements, was performed for each subject. Systolic blood pressure above 140 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure above 90 mmHg and/or any history of antihypertensive usage in each group were considered as hypertensive status. Results: Diastolic blood pressure was significantly higher in POAG patients than control group (P=0.003). Systolic blood pressure was also higher in POAG patients than control group; however, the difference was only marginally significant (P=0.07). No association between POAG and hypertension was found. Conclusion: POAG was found to have a strong positive association with diastolic blood pressure in our patients.","PeriodicalId":54919,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Ophthalmology","volume":"81 1","pages":"31-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86633326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
