Plasma and aqueous humour levels of homocysteine in exfoliation syndrome
2004
Background
Recent studies have suggested that the relationship between elevated plasma homocysteine (Hcy) and increased risk of vascular disease holds also for certain diseases of the eye with vascular aetiology. Elevated plasma Hcy levels have been noted among patients with exfoliation syndrome (XFS). The purpose of this study was to establish whether subjects with XFS have higher plasma and aqueous humour Hcy levels values than non-XFS subjects, particularly in relation to vitamin B status.
